Commenter: Pillar to Post Home Inspections

I a pose the bill
 

This bill is outragous. This leaves an open door for every inspector to be liable for items out of our control, and allows the buyer to expect payment for every little thing they find in thier opinion. This will also kill our industry, businesses, lively hood of all inspectors. This will also make our operating expences rise to the point the clients will be suffering, cost of inspection will have to double. As a business owner I can see my expences double or even tripple, my libility exposure will increas, which will force me to let go of my staff.

I feel the system is working fine as it is. My thougth is, if this is to protect the buyer, then thier should be a mandatory level of insurance required for home inspectors to carry. This will protect the consumer for errors and mistakes.
