We are in the process of buying a home. The seller has refused to allow the home inspector of our choice to do the inspection. Do they have the right to refuse our choice of home inspector?

The choice of what home inspector to use for your home purchase is entirely up to you, the buyer. It is unusual for the seller to have knowledge of who the selected home inspector is, so I'm not sure who may have disclosed your selection of home inspector to the seller. Questions I would ask as buyer might include asking the seller if they possibly have had dealings with this home inspector in the past. Do they personally know him, and feel his recommendations may be biased? I would also recommend having a talk with your real estate professional and ask if they happened to disclose this information to the seller or seller's agent during conversations with them. Word to the wise - do your own research and select a home inspector that is independent from your agent.


To keep from losing a lawsuit a home inspector should?

... learn to communicate clearly and concisely with the Client. The inspector must have a fair home inspection agreement which indicates in relatively unsophisticated terms which Standard of Practice the inspector follows, including what is included and specifically excluded from the inspection. The inspector needs to drive home the fact that he/she does not have x-ray eyes or a crystal ball. The inspector needs to be careful what he/she claims in their marketing materials. Above all, the inspector needs to perform a good home inspection.Joe Farsettahttp:/www.inspectionarbitrationservice.comhttp:/www.jfarsetta.inspectionarbitrationservice.com
