The gov- ernment housing agency stress- ed that the most important thing to remember about its in- spections is that they are not intended to provide full archi- tectural or engineering supervi- sion for house buyers. The in- spections by CMHC are made to ensure that the completed house will offer good mortgage security. The -home-owner--can protect his interests by arrang- ing for his own inspections. CMHC inspections only in- directly benefit the home-owner. The inspections are carried out to insure that dwellings are built in reasonable conformity with the Housing Standards -- the building standards-prescrib- ed by CMHC for houses financ- ed under the National Housing Act -- and in accordance with the plans and specifications the borrower submitted with his loan application.

Anyone applying for an NHA loan signs a statement to the effect that he must make his own arrangement with his con- tractor and see that the house is built to his satisfaction and in accordance with NHA hous- ing standards and the approved plans and specifications. The statement adds that neither the 'lender nor CMHC has any con- trol_-over_the contractor or over the building operations. House buyers should either inspect the house themselves or arrange for a suitable agent to inspect -it for them. It is the purchaser's responsibility to see that he gets what he is paying for. inspecting NHA financed houses. The new procedures do not apply to the inspection of apart- ment buildings. The new plan has four main objectives: to improve inspec- tions. and the quality of con- struction; to allow local CMHC offices more flexibility in deal- ing with inspection difficulties; to provide a better service to borrowers and builders by keep- ing inspection delays to a mini- mum; and to reduce com- plaints about construction, STAGE INSPECTIONS Normally the first stage in- spection will be carried out at the foundation stage. At this point, foundation walls and re- lated work such as tile drains are to be completed and ready for backfill. The second stage inspection will take place at the ready-for-lath stage. Here, the house is to be framed, roof- ed, insulated and ready for lath or its equivalent. The last stage inspection will be made when the house is complete.
