[quote=Anonymous][quote=AgentX][quote=Anonymous][quote=AgentX]Because that's how it works PP. Once you are made aware of an issue by an Inspector, you have to disclose it. If you don't and it comes to light that you knew about it as the seller, you could find yourself in court and it won't go in your favor. [/quote]

Agent X.  Please, again, talk to your broker tomorrow.  You are spewing inaccuracies and not helping anyone.[/quote]

Oh other agent...you're so so wrong. I'm unsure how you are so misinformed and incompetent. The OP stated they have the reports. Now they have to disclose.  You need to check with your broker and with good old Google.  If you and/or your client receive the reports and you don't now update your disclosures you will find yourself in a heap of trouble. But why don't you try it out and let us know how it goes when you are in receipt of an inspection report and it's found that there was an issue raised by an inspector during inspection of the house and you didn't disclose it.

Allow me to start with this to help you be a better agent! http://realtormag.realtor.org/law-and-ethics/law/article/2009/04/10-essential-disclosure-rules

And, it's been the case for quite some time: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/09/16/AR2005091600883.html

Regarding inspections prior to contract, the only time they are done is when there are multiple offers on a hotly pursued property and the buyers want to not have inspection as part of their offer so it's more attractive to the seller. OP's property has been sitting on the market, why allow such nonsense? Get people to sign on the line, then let them in to inspect.

Did you read OPs original post saying she had received two of the previous inspections and they "came back clean."   What is she failing to disclose?   That she had two clean inspections?   Your comments may apply if there were items on the report that the seller knew of and would then havre to disclose. You were advising IP generally not specific ally to her situation.
