In today’s modern real estate world, any
real estate professional bears an obligation to disclose flaws. The
problem is that nobody can be an expert at everything. Recommending a
professional home inspection goes a long way to meeting your disclosure
requirements. However you do have to keep in mind that not all home
inspection companies are equal.
There are some basic and fundamental
requirements that your client should know about when choosing their
inspector:
-
Insurance:
Should your
client choose and inspector that does not possess
errors and omissions insurance
and liability
insurance; you may find yourself responsible should any claim arise
or for any damage to the property that occurred during the
inspection as a result of the inspection.
-
Qualifications:
An inspector maybe unqualified or untrained and claims may arise
because that home inspector is not obligated to follow any standards
of inspection or code of ethics. It is not enough just to be
renovator or trades person. Home inspectors require expertise in
all the homes systems. Ensure that the home inspector is a
member of and complies with all regional and national association
home inspection requirements, including ongoing training and
education.
-
Inspection reporting:
Inspection reports are of varying quality and are not standardized
in the industry. It is essential that your customer receive a
detailed, legible easy to read and professional report. The IDEAL
computerized reporting system is used throughout North America, and
is second to none. Our reporting system was developed by (ITA)
the largest home inspection training organization in North America.
To reduce your liability and increase
customer satisfaction it is necessary to educate customers on the value
of a professional home inspection and how to select a good home
inspector. |
