Data Base Adjustment - 45 Day Delivery Deadline (based on scoring report release date)
Conditions Beyond the Control of the Owner	Deficiencies involving conditions caused by severe weather, vandalism, accident, criminal activity within a too short a period before the inspection to allow the owner to reasonably address them.  These would often involve a police report or an insurance claim as a supporting document.  In lieu of these documents, it might include an official government issued weather report that has been interpreted by an expert party providing a professional opinion saying that a condition has been caused by such a weather event.  Reports from a private security agency may be valuable where a police report is not available.  This type of appeal can also include breach of contract, where a contractor fails to perform, and can include conditions caused by delays in the performance of a contract, where the wrong parts are ordered and must be re-ordered, etc.
Storm Damage	A severe thunderstorm with high winds knocks over a tree, which falls on your fence and/or one of your buildings, causing significant damage two weeks before your REAC inspection.  This requires you to file an insurance claim, to wait for the adjuster to process the claim, and to then solicit bids from contractors so repairs can be made.  There is no way you can get it all done before your inspection.  The inspector cites multiple deficiencies related to this damage.  Since you know you are going to need to appeal this, you ask the inspector to please add comments to the report saying "fence damaged by fallen tree" and "gutter and downspout damaged by downed tree."  (This is not completely necessary, but it may be helpful if you can persuade the inspector to add this kind of comment.)  The insurance claims documentation will be the primary evidence in your appeal.  You might also include any photos taken at the time of the accident, showing the fallen tree against the fence and/or building.  If you have gotten bids from contractors, you should include these.  If a contract has already been signed, you will include it.  If the contract was signed prior to the inspection, you might submit a duplicate appeal under "work in progress."
