A: I heard that you finished my home inspection 1, and I was wondering how it went.

B: First of all, we need to understand what I was looking for. Do you know what the purpose of an inspection is?

A: I am not sure what a home inspection is all about.

B: I went there to check for problems with the home, so you aren’t surprised when you move in.

A: Wouldn’t the owners have told me about any problems?

B: Sellers aren’t always truthful 2, and there might also be problems that they aren’t aware of.

A: Can I require the owners to fix the problems?

A: What did you find out when you did the inspection of my new home?

B: There were no major problems. One leaky pipe under the sink and two broken roof tiles was all that I found.
