dperry3 has reported a post.

Reason:

During my the home inspection process, I was asked by the realtor to overlook a couple of things. He told me not to worry, it was a friend of his buying the house. And if I did this for him he would give me more leds on future inspections. I then told him that this would not possible on my part. As it is my duty to inspect and report what I see as issue of concern. Had I moved forward with his offer this would have violated InterNACHIS code of conduct.

While inspecting a home with the homeowner present I was asked if the report would have a negative effect as to the value of the home. I was also asked if it would be possible to write a favorable report. I advised the home owner that I was unable to do either. I advised I would be in violation of the code of ethics as well as many others and that it was my job and duty to do a non bias and complete inspection.
