I do the exact same thing with newer homes. If it's new, it should be right. If I inspect a brand new home and find no house wrap behind vinyl siding, I'll definitely mark it as 'unacceptable'.

I also subconsciously rate my comments on these two aspects but I do find myself being harder on newer homes. If a home is a 1900 but has some weird things going on I am usually more forgiving than if it is a 2 year old home. Still though, I think that you are right on the money with cost vs. risk. Nice work. Great post Reuben. I also subconsciously rate my comments on these two aspects but I do find myself being harder on newer homes.
