NEVER Hire An Inspector From A Realtor Referral

John Sonmez exposes a conflict of interest many investors don't think about: there is an inherent bias for agents when recommending home inspectors.

Think about it: if you're an agent, your sole goal is for the deal to go through.

Much of the time, the proverbial wrench in that is the home inspection. If problems arise, it's harder to close the deal. Not to say agents are shady, even the most honest have a little bias.

On the other side of the coin, there might be conflict from the home inspector's perspective: if you find problems, that will discourage buyers from going through with the deal, and that process threatens repeat referral business from that agent.

In this video John explains what you should do INSTEAD – it eliminates the conflict of interest and gets you a better chance at a lower price on the property, too.
