home-inspection-decoder

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Make sense of a home-inspection report before you buy — what's serious vs cosmetic, what to negotiate, and what to investigate further. Use when asked to explain my home inspection, is this inspection finding serious, what should I negotiate after inspection, or decode my inspection report. Produces a triage of findings by severity (safety/structural/expensive vs minor/cosmetic), plain-English translations, the items worth a repair credit or price negotiation, what warrants a specialist follow-up, and a walk-vs-proceed read — flagging that the inspector and specialists are the authority.

home-maintenance-calendar

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Build a seasonal home-maintenance calendar so the small upkeep gets done before it becomes an expensive repair. Use when asked for a home maintenance schedule, what should I do to maintain my house, seasonal home checklist, or home upkeep plan. Produces a month-by-month/seasonal task list tuned to your home type and climate, grouped by system (roof, HVAC, plumbing, exterior, safety), a note of what's DIY vs pro, the highest-consequence tasks not to skip, and a simple way to track it — so upkeep is routine, not reactive.
