Default UPset Agent

Not sure if we have an answer for the agent, Seems he wishes to complain about an inspector. Do we have somewhere they can go, now be nice.

I think an appropriate response to an upset salesman with a complaint against an inspector could all be summed up into one finger.

When the agent called to air his view,( over another inspection company) i told the agent to count to 10 a few times and then wait a day or two and call and talk to the inspector and work it out but the agent wanted somewhere he could complain too much the same as they have as agents, a board or a plank at least to listen to them.

Hi Chuck:

As far as I know, most associations have Professional Practice & Discipline Committees to hear complaints about their members. If the agent knows which association the inspector belongs to, he can file a complaint.

If the inspector does not belong to an association, he is pretty well SOL, but this is something people should look for when they hire an inspector. It really benefits the consumer and all parties if the inspector has some type of affiliation with some body that oversees its people.

So the realtor wants to complain, but not the buyer/client? Interesting.

Thanks Bill but having seen how the association you push all the time ignores wrong doing .
I see no advantage on reporting a home inspector to it .
Past experience shows it is a complete farce .

The only thing that anyone can report to an association that could result in any action would be a known violation of that association's ethical standards by one of its members. Anything and everything else is a business matter in which no association would have authority to address.
