Should a Homebuyer Hire a Home Inspector Recommended by an Agent? (part 2 of 2)

Take note that almost all home agents want full disclosure. They would always make sure the homebuyers’ interests would have to be prioritized. Only by doing so could they stay in business. Agents and inspectors all abide by what is called an industry standard practice. There are regulations covering violations in standards, which everyone logically would avoid. It would only cost too much for any agent to commission an inspector to come out with a faulty report.

To date, no reputable agent would be willing to withhold any important information to a prospective homebuyer. Of course, they know that if full disclosure is not implemented, buyers could always get back to them even after the deal has been closed. Agents also do not want to get the blame if there are safety, security, and maintenance issues missed during a home inspection. In this way, rest assured that they would only recommend inspectors whom they think would be capable and reliable to do the job well.

In the property market, it is also observed that home inspectors recommended are of the agents’ same caliber. Again, this is an assurance that any home inspector on agents’ recommended lists is trustworthy. So, should you hire a home inspector recommended by your agent? There is no reason for you not to. In the end the decision is still all up to you.
