Easier said than done. The plumbing is under the slab. How would he install this valve in the wall?

And if the inspector couldn't find it in an empty house, either, I'm pretty sure it's not there.

It's a 2008 "Beauregard" courtyard villa in the "Hillcrest Villas" section of Hadley, north of 466a and Morse. I'd bet money there's not a house in that neighborhood with a real shutoff valve.
