If you have nothing to hide you would not object to such an
inspection and report.

Correct. I have no problem with such an inspection and report.

I have a problem with being expected to PAY for it.

You have something to hide. They are a brilliant idea.

If that was true they would already exist, and would not
require government compulsion. You are aware that many
car dealers commission independent reports in advance of
any sale? That does not and did not require law, it makes
sense. If it made equal sense with houses, it would have
been done long ago, by estate agents looking for a USP.
