Re: Expert present
A point of clarification per Jack’s post; I never took the position that the property owner (seller) could not be at home as that would be ridiculous, but rather “attend” the inspection process, that is follow me around to hear what I had to say to my clients. I learned early on that the vast majority of clients preferred to be alone with their inspector during the investigative process and I sure as hell didn’t want to go over my “hit list” in front of the couple who had resided in their “perfectly maintained” home for the last 25 years. Its like how would you feel about having your doctor discuss his/her findings in their waiting room in front of all the other patients? Our reports are for the benefit of our clients only and the remark “the more the merrier” only indicates someone who doesn’t grasp the meaning of confidentiality, besides being rather naïve.
As I stated in my original post on this thread there are many ways of conducting one’s business and I found through the years that avoiding arguments with defensive home owners and their agents to be far more productive and less stressful for all concerned during my t.o.g. Anyhow, that’s my opinion fwiw.
