6" foundation wall, 5 1/2" framing that's supposed to be flush with the outside which overhangs the 7/16" sheeting. then add 5/4 Hardi trim which is usually like an 1 1/4" on the ends. this is not off by 2" it's a 1/4-1/2" off the wall on the correct side of the foundation. you are allowed up to 2" overhang of framing on a 2x6 wall.

Way off by a little bit. Home inspectors should be required to do a couple years construction before becoming an inspector.

Wall and base plate are firmly secured to the foundation. Nothing else is load bearing. That trim hanging over hurts absolutely nothing.

You are looking at the finishes. The framing might be squared away.

I’m betting the framer just squared it up. I bet the foundation was out of square.

the framing is setting 100%on the foundation and not hanging off

so fortunately the framers had some experience and didnt just put it wherever the foundation was

That will not hurt a thing. I’ve been in a construction industry for 35 years. The structural framing is on the foundation that’s all that matters.

It’s possible that the foundation is off or out of square so the framers had no choice but to adjust the plates to make it square. I’ve seen that many times on new construction. It passes inspection.

Foundation was most likely out of square so the framer did what they had to do to make it work

Odds are the framing is correct but the foundation isn’t square.

The load bearing framing is on the concrete foundation. You do not put the finished exterior sideing on the Foundation. it hands on the frame and exterior sheeting. And thats not 2 inches.

Ok well inspection isn't gonna pull square on your foundation lol new builds are always shoddy work unless I'm doing them ofc

possibly the foundation wasnt completely square and the framers squared it up with the plates.
