3 Reasons Home Inspections Kill Deals

It may be tempting to blame a faulty property or an overzealous home inspector when a transaction falls apart after inspection. But there’s more to this common situation than meets the eye. November 2017 | By Dylan Chalk home inspector in patio area If I were a real estate agent and I had worked weeks, months, or even years with a client, I would dread home inspection time. Experienced real estate professionals know there are hundreds of ways a deal can fall apart, from credit and financing problems to appraisals to just plain cold feet. But certainly, one of the more common deal killers is the home inspection. But it doesn’t have to be. To help prevent home inspection time from becoming contract termination time, here are a few thoughts from the point of view of an experienced home inspector.

However, they From this point of view, the cancellation has often lack the tools to help them digest all of everything to do with the client’s the facts. expectations coming into the inspection. It might be tempting to wish the home inspector had been less forthcoming about the condition of the house, but that implies The number one reason deals fall apart after that the client should experience some level a home inspection is that the findings of deceit or poor communication from the significantly change what the home buyer home inspector. The better solution to this thought they were buying. Many make the common problem is buyers having more mistake blaming the home inspector or the realistic expectations before they sign the house. That’s why I created a new motto for contract. This is why I wrote my book, The home buyers: “All houses have problems, but Confident House Hunter—to teach people every house is a great house for the right From my experience, there are three home inspection situations that lead to a canceled skills that will help them look at houses and person at the right price.� transaction. You might be surprised to hear evaluate risk so they are more prepared to two things are not on this list: the house and make an offer on the right house. Here are I’ve inspected houses that I felt were the home inspector. Having spent more than the top three reasons buyers cancel a deal teardowns, meaning the property would be after the inspection. costlier to fix than it was worth. Upon giving a dozen years performing more than 5,000 this information to one homebuilder client, he structural home inspections, I have found said, “Great! I was hoping to tear it down that some real estate agents do think that anyway.� I have inspected other houses that the home or the home inspector is to blame, I thought should be torn down, but buyers There are no classes in college or high but let’s step back for a minute and look at to teach people how houses work or wanted to renovate them anyway because school what really happens in these situations. they were in love with the cabin-like feel of where risk lies in a residential building. professional real estate agents have the place and they had the resources to Even When the findings uncovered in a home little or no training to help them understand make their dream come true, even if it was inspection significantly alter the buyer’s not the most cost-effective approach.

Adding another layer of complexity to modern homebuying is how much our assumptions about houses have changed. Most buyers now expect a level of luxury and comfort in a house that consumers could scarcely have imagined as recently as the 1960s. The result is that people are now buying more expensive and more complex homes, yet have less understanding of how they are built or how they work. And in markets enduring tight inventory conditions, your clients have less and less time for decision-making, as multiple offers and spontaneous action become the norm and increase the chances for buyer remorse.

Further complicating matters is the reality that home inspections have changed as well. It’s a relatively new industry, and over the past 15 years, I’ve watched computergenerated reports, digital cameras, and other new tools lead to rapid innovation. Today, upon hiring a quality home inspector, a buyer can expect to receive a 40- to 60-page report with dozens or COUNTRY LIVING! even hundreds of high-resolution color photos, detailed diagrams, and links 2787 HIGHWAY 82E

STOP! LOOK!

I am always surprised when people read my inspection reports and comment something like, “Oh, you hated that house.� I do not hate houses. I am simply doing my best to document the condition of the property so the right person can buy it at what they believe is the right price. I love houses; it is unrealistic expectations that I don’t like. Are Home Inspectors Sometimes Responsible for Killing Deals? One of the hardest things for me to hear is the charge that home inspectors are killing deals. I do feel that the industry could do more to train inspectors on both technical and communications skills. In fact, communication training is particularly lacking in home inspection schools and continuing education courses. But I also feel that the real estate industry could do more to prepare agents to teach buyers a better way to look at the “bones� of houses. I am not aware of any requirements for new real estate agents to learn anything about houses to get a real estate license in my home state of Washington, and maybe that should change. The truth is all houses pose some level of risk, and there are skills everyone can learn to help evaluate that risk and make appropriate offers on the right homes. A more transparent approach could help us all show up to the inspection armed with realistic expectations. This could save everyone a lot of time and heartache, resulting in happier clients, better referrals, and a lot less talk about home inspections killing deals.
