Response to a Home Inspector

On December 4th, Canadian Real Estate Magazine posted the above article about home inspections. It features an interview with a home inspector who has recently published a book on this issues with the home inspection profession - and attempts to blame Realtors for the problems.

 

This home inspector needs to give his head a shake. Here are the problems with his article:

1) Realtors(r) do not dictate how inspections result, and don't choose inspectors based on "blown sales." First off, Realtors(r) do not choose inspectors: buyers do.

 

Agents may recommend a few inspectors, but they may never recommend just one. And just as the Buyer freely chooses their Realtor(r), the buyer freely chooses their inspector.

Historic home offered for FREE - with a catch

 Didn't find anything on Black Friday or Cyber Monday? This could be the deal you are looking for.

A 100 year old home in the beautiful community of Rosedale, BC is being offered up for sale - for free. The house itself, a beautiful heritage home, will cost you nothing - but of course there is a catch.
