Every experienced real estate agent has worked with great home inspectors in their career. Regrettably, they\u2019ve worked with some real dogs too.

Some home inspectors will create lists of problems that enter the realm of fantasy, while others seem to miss obvious flaws. If you\u2019re there, you can see what they see and form your own opinion. Unless there\u2019s a very good reason to schedule an inspection when you can\u2019t make it, don\u2019t miss the opportunity to be an active advocate for your client.<\/p>\n
