Buyers Agents - Do you attend the home inspection?

Yvette, I have not yet heard of anyone advising the buyer agent to not attend a home inspection.  Most of our inspectors where I live and work like to do their inspection and have the buyer and their agent come during the last few minutes.  They usually tell us to come at a certain time.  This allows them to do their inspection uninterrupted, and then they happily give us the grand tour, and go thru every detail with us.  You are right, if we do not attend, what DO we do.

In Florida, our inspectors are state licensed now, which I welcome.  Our contract forms also clearly state that the buyer only has access to the home for inspections, appraisal and final walk thru. I advise buyers to attend inspections, bring something to write on and somethng to write with, a camera and a measureing tape.  I let them know this is their time to review the property carefully, take measurements for future planning, and to ask quesitons of their inspector. 

I attend, if possible.  I do not follow the inspector around but sit quietly while the inspector does his job.  I make sure the buyer is not climbing on the roof or into the attic.  I talk to the inspector when he is down his work.
