Realtors and real estate agents will learn how to reduce their liability, close more deals, and create an all referral business. Understand the difference and uses of the home inspection, home warranty, survey, and appraisal in reducing buyers risk, seller's liability and Realtors commission. How to prepare for the arrival of the home inspector at your house. What questions should you ask a home inspector before hiring them? What special training or tools should they have in addition to a certification and home inspection license? Is a simple home inspection checklist enough or is a more detailed home inspection report better? Should new homes be inspected, or should you trust that the city building inspector did enough when he said the house met the minimum building code? Do home inspectors inspect for building code violations? What should be done with the list of repairs for the property that the home inspector reports? How much should a home inspection Cost what services should be included beyond a basic home inspection checklist. What tools should you expect a trusted home inspection expert to bring to the property inspection? Can a home inspector do a complete home inspection without using an infrared camera? Could a real estate agent who refers a home inspector who does not use an infrared camera be considered negligent in making the referral?

Is there a home inspection mindset that leads to peace of mind during and after the inspection of the house and property? Who is this book NOT for? This book is NOT a how to DO a home inspection checklist like those from Holmes on Holmes TV star Mike Holmes, but a how to choose a home inspector and how to USE a home inspection guide!

Truth be told, if you've enjoyed the description of" Home Inspection Secrets of A Happy Home Inspector" enough to read the all the way to the bottom of the description, you will enjoy reading the entire book!
