My inspection with the owners there on an 11 month warranty while hitting the start button on the micro wave there was a large shorting sound and a bright glow at one of the screws inside.
At the end of the inspection the woman asks if I had that insurance to cover for repairs. I asked "repairs on what" she said "on the mmicro wave because you were the last one to touch it.
I could not help myself and a quick chuckle/laugh came out and I told her that my insurance company would do what I just did. She was instantly PO. I can only imagine what may be coming next.
I quickly added that she could have been the one to put a cup of water in there to heat it up and it would have been her that hit the button and it still would have shorted and then who would you be looking for to pay for it. Man , she is now getting more disgruntled.
I also quickly added that anything I just inspected in then home can stop working the moment I exit the front door. I told her that the home inspection is not a warranty or garranty of anykind and there will be mechanical breakdowns. Now she is really turning red in the face and the steam coming out of her ears.
Luckily I already got my check and I shook there hands and said "have a nice day.
I'm just curious how nice a day I will be having in the future when this woman tries to put every breakdown on me for the next few years.
Oh well. Such is life.
