Conflict of Interest? Most of my clients use my husband, Joe as a Home Inspector.
Before some of you go off, I do give them other names and express it would not hurt my feelings one bit if they do not choose Joe.
For years before I became a Realtor, I went on many, many Home Inspections with my husband and used to go to his CE classes to. I also watched many homes being built by our Custom Home Building company and was involved in that business as well. Over the years I learned very valuable do’s and don’ts.
This education has become very important in what I do now. I can say with confidence I know a lot but don’t know it all. For that reason I am a great Buyers Agent and Listing Agent before we even get to making an offer on a home or I list one for sale. Both Joe and I take our licenses very seriously and would never jeopardize them in any way.
A little side note: He is known for his through inspections and listing agents cringe when they know he is coming.
That said, I have had a few Agents on the Selling side argue with me that it is a conflict of interest for Joe to do a Home Inspection for my Buyers. I say it is not and so does The NC Home Inspector Licensure Board. I have a call and email to NAR to see what they have to say.
I want to know what you think?
This is part of the May 31 Day challenge.
