Re: My first post
Well, a 40 gallon W/H can work just fine for a two bathroom home if folks use the water wisely. I had a 40 gallon tank for years with a family of five. It was understood in our family that when the water became cool that it was time to get out of the bath or shower!
Now as for what you did. You told your client that they might run out of hot water. Well, that it most likely a true statement to a point. Then your client based on that information and most likely the knowledge that he already had is using that to leverage an upgrade on the home he is buying.
It is an upgrade to an existing system that does not need to be upgraded. If the owner won't do it and the buyer is going to walk, then the agents need to pony up the money if they want the sale to work. Not really your fault, but us home inspectors are blamed for many things like this.
