Examining the quality and consistency of home inspections.
Province of Ontario, June 2005 Update
In real estate transactions, some things never change. Sellers usually feel they’ve given their house away, buyers believe they’ve paid too much and Realtors fear neither side will ever get to the closing table. There is however, one thing that has been inconsistent in real estate transactions: the quality of the home inspection.
That’s been changing somewhat with the inception of professional home inspection associations. To gain membership, home inspectors typically prove their competency by passing exams, meeting education and experience requirements - and by maintaining a professional service to the public.
