What The Realtor Should Do
By Lon Grossman

A mistake many realtors make is downplaying the inspection by saying things such as, “The inspection is just a formality”.

Prepare your buyer for the inspector. Let the purchaser know the inspectors job is to be very critical and nit-pick. Let them know if something major is found it can usually be dealt with by money or you’ll find them another house.

Make sure the house is open on time, accessible and that all utilities are on.

Provide all information regarding the house.

If your purchaser has certain handicaps, special needs, or you know will ask a million more questions than other clients would, let the inspector know so additional time for the inspection can be allocated.
