Does anyone know that the drain tile should be verified and tested or not during the home inspection. Isn't is beyond the scope of inspection as it is not visible?

I would only comment on drainage tile if there are patently obvious signs of a problem.
(i.e.) dampness/efflorescence/puddle/ at wall/floor junction of foundation.
Otherwise its beyond the scope of the inspection.

Thank you, Raymond. That's what I'm going to do in my inspection.
