Re: Worst Client Contest
I've certainly had my share of encounters with ******* clients, sellers, agents, builders, other inspectors, tradesmen, municipal inspectors, you name it. At the top of my current list of people who need to have their ass kicked (and this is a very l-o-n-g list) resides one consumate lying SOB.

He called me a month ago complaining that, during my inspection of his house a year earlier, I must have been blind, for I had missed the fact that there was absolutely no insulation installed in the ceiling. I usually take about 50-75 photos of any property I inspect. Most of my reports contain about 20-25 of these photos as I see fit. I sent him several photos of issues in his attic that, of course, showed ample blown-in insulation in place. When faced with photos he simply denied that these were actual photos of his house.

Turns out that, after moving in, he had the rafter cavities sprayed with foam insulation. The contractor also removed the blown-in insulation during that process. It seems he wanted me to foot part of the bill . . .
