Plumbing Inspection in Coxs Creek, KY
About 28% of the people who own a home in Coxs Creek bought it in 2018 or later. On a turnover figure that high, the question is less whether an inspection happened than what it was allowed to look at.
The one-paragraph answer
In Coxs Creek, where 28% of owners bought in 2018 or later, a great many homes have been inspected recently. A standard inspection looks at what can be seen and operated; the drain line under the garden is outside its published scope and needs a camera survey.

When Coxs Creek moved in
On a turnover figure this high, most owners here bought recently enough that the inspection is within memory. The useful question is what was excluded from it, because that list has not changed and neither has the house.
| Owner households in Coxs Creek | Share of all owners |
|---|---|
| Moved in 2021 or later | 7% |
| Moved in 2018–2020 | 21% |
| Moved in 2010–2017 | 28% |
| Moved in before 2010 | 43% |

Universe: 2,482 occupied housing units, of which 2,379 are owner-occupied. This counts when the CURRENT occupant moved in, so it measures recent moves as a share of the housing stock — not a rate of sales per year.
What the inspection will not cover
The water heater is covered in some detail by both standards — and InterNACHI is equally explicit that nobody is required to measure its capacity, temperature or adequacy, or to test the relief valve. It is looked at, not operated.

What it is required to cover
Knowing what is required is what lets you read the report properly. A finding against something the standard covers is a finding; silence about something it excludes is not reassurance. Most people read the document without that distinction and it is the difference between two very different pieces of paper.
What is actually covered — because silence in a report means one thing about a covered system and something completely different about an excluded one.
What to do about it
If you are selling, establish it before somebody else does. The same finding is worth more to a buyer who discovered it than to one who was told.
The published standards settle most arguments: excluded, covered, and the separate instruction for everything past the building.
