[quote=Anonymous]If you're doing a pre-inspection, what benefit does the written report serve you? An inspector will have you sign something that protects them against anything they may have missed. I would take good notes and pay very close attention during the inspection. Ask questions about everything as you're going around with the inspector. The ONLY reason you would do a pre-inspection is to be able to make your offer more attractive by removing the inspection contingency. An inspector is not going to find more problems simply because they are writing up a report. In fact, many sellers will limit pre-inspections to 1-2 hours. I would personally rather have my inspector focused on finding issues than worrying about writing a report and noting minor issues that come up in every house. I would be concerned with them identifying major concerns.[/quote]
