Home Inspections

Reblogger
Real Estate Agent with Crystal Palms Realty

Giving the buyer a list of names and phone numbers of qualified home inspectrors in the area and having the buyer select his or her own home inspector is good advice. 

One of the most effective risk-management tools available to licensees is a home inspection. The inspection is intended to disclose defects in a building that buyers, sellers, and real estate licensees have missed.
It is better to identify problems before the closing so the parties can negotiate a settlement. If a material defect is discovered after closing, the buyer may sue the licensee rather than the seller, who may now live in a distant city.

Home inspectors must be licensed by the DBPR. They must have a high school diploma, be of good character, complete a minimum of 120 hours of prescribed education, and pass a state examination.

Have the buyer select his or her own inspector so there's no question about collusion. Give your buyers a list with names and phone numbers of qualified home inspectors in your area.
