Always have a pre-sale inspection so you know what you are looking at when you do your pre close walk through!
Recently I have been asked why i do not give estimates for repairs to homes i have inspected. The following is why i do not do so. A: Home inspectors are often asked about the cost of repairs, usually at the end of the inspection when we give a verbal report on the condition of the home. Although it would be convenient, as a rule, home inspectors do not provide written cost estimates or exact quotations for repairs.... Depending on the comfort level and experience of the inspector, rough ballpark costs may be discussed. However, the actual amounts can vary considerably depending on the contractor one hires. Inspectors are encouraged not to provide written estimates for three simple reasons: Home inspectors are not allowed to repair or fix items, so to make cost estimates would be a conflict of interest and against our code of ethics. Due to the litigious nature of this profession, it can be very risky for the inspector, especially if estimates given are much different than the actual cost for completed repairs. In addition to the potential legal ramifications and ethical implications, inspectors should always try to offer accurate information rather than guessing. Only an experienced contractor can do this accurately.
As a special note to anyone requiring a home inspection. I have not traveled outside the country and have not been in contact with anyone who has. Although the COVID 19 can be airborne in public places it is my intent to make certain that any sign of illness on my part will leave me to self quarantine . I do ask at this time that you let me know if you feel ill in any way prior to meeting for a home inspection. It is business as usual only, no physical handshakes for a few... weeks at best. My best regards to all! Jim Armstrong See more
