Home Inspectors as Deal Killers

[Gary Farnsworth]

Used house commissioned sales people will do and say anything right now to get a sale. Here in Kansas, all they have to do is get a "licensed" state home inspector, get him to check an outlet or two, a switch here and there, close one door, yep, there is a roof, open one window, turn on the furnace, yep, it heats. $149 and 45 minutes, done.

That really serves the consumer. And, if there is a problem later, the buyer calls the inspector.

The KAR bought and paid for these new laws. Now Kansas lawmakers, the attorney general, the former governor, all will have to answer to the consumer when the time comes. Yep, I can see Hammer time coming soon this fall, during elections.

I am a certified deal killer. I know of several that have fallen through due to my reports. Or should I say, due to the choice of the buyer. That, is the way it should be.

It is some of the agents that have the problems, and should be regulated, licensed, insured, and monitored. There should also be a committee or a regulatory agency that is advertised and given to the buyer of the home to voice complaints against these agents, and manned by home inspectors. I think that the NAR and state RE agencies should step up.
