Yes standards exist. Quality of inspectors varies greatly as does their
comprehension of the standards.

We have little or no contact with the buyer. We may have some contact with
the buyers agent. The sellers tend to repair 99% of the items on the
inspection report. Most buyers are reasonable in there request of repairs
and rarely do they use it to negotiate a better price. They just expect the
items to be repaired.

The sales where problems dropped the price, we obviously they dont use
your company....

Its true there are lots of poor inspectors but as someone said they
catch the BIG stuff.

If I were selling today I would spend a few hunded for a inspection, a
thrifty buyer MIGHT accept mine and besides it allows ME at MY TIME AND
EXPENSE t fix stuff MYSELF rather than a buyer DEMANDING all the work
by a registered contractor, which will cost ME much more!
