Just like Alpha Alpha Structural, Inc. (previously here, here, and here), Boston Home Inspectors also rain on people s parades. Well, kinda. In a nice way. We are hired by the buyer of a property to inspect the exterior of the house, basement, and structure along with all of the home systems, James Brock of Boston Home Inspectors told
Bored Panda. We test all the outlets, appliances, windows, doors, and bathroom fixtures. We, both, look for items not installed properly or that may be deteriorated, defective, or have an item of concern. For example, a leak or unsafe conditions.
Besides looking for problems or issues, the company educates the buyer about the investment that they will be making. We teach them how the various components in their new home work and what to expect for life expectancy and what to plan for future maintenance.
US coal exports drop 7% YOY in Q4’20; China emerges among top importers
U.S. coal shipments to some of the country’s top importers increased significantly in the fourth quarter of 2020, with China recording a triple-digit uptick amid its escalating trade dispute with Australia.
Total U.S. coal exports during the three-month period fell 7.3% year over year to 17.4 million tonnes from 18.8 Mt, according to an analysis by S&P Global Market Intelligence. Compared to the previous quarter, the U.S. shipped 25.1% more of the commodity from October through December 2020.
Despite the year-on-year slowdown, the quarterly exports figure “slightly” exceeded Moody’s projection for the period, reflecting some recovery in coal pricing in the second half of 2020, Moody’s Investors Service analyst Benjamin Nelson told Market Intelligence.
