152: Ask the Inspector


Listen Later

Do you attend your home inspections… or are you skipping one of the most important parts of the transaction?

In this episode, we're sitting down with home inspector Whit Green to talk about everything agents need to know about inspections—from what actually happens during an inspection to how you can better serve your clients by simply showing up.

Because here's the thing: inspections are where you learn. Not just about the house, but about how to guide your clients, manage expectations, and understand what really matters (and what doesn't).

We're diving into what makes a great inspector, how to find one, and why your relationship with your inspector can make or break your client experience.

Plus, we're sharing real stories—from attic animals 😳 to shocking (literally) inspection moments—and what agents should and should NOT be doing during inspections.

If you've ever wondered how to better navigate this part of the transaction… this episode is a must-listen.

Here's what we cover in this episode:

-Why every agent should attend home inspections -What actually happens during a home inspection -How to set expectations for your buyers -Why inspections are not "pass or fail" -How to manage buyers (and their family members 😅) during inspections -What inspectors wish agents would do differently -How to choose the right home inspector -Why communication and systems matter in scheduling -What tools and technology inspectors are using today -How to handle vague or "unknown" issues in a report -Common deal breakers (and why most things are fixable) -Why documentation and understanding reports is critical -The importance of building relationships with your inspector -Why skipping inspections is never a good idea

-Whit Green Home Inspections -Spectora (inspection software) -TikTok (for inspection videos and marketing)
