The home inspector should provide the written report in an easy to read, bound format, not just a file folder of loose pages. Most professionals will provide a binder with divided sections, including home maintenance tips and checklists for future use.
Sellers may choose to complete a home inspection prior to pricing the house. This can help in determining what repairs are needed to help in getting the best possible price for your house, often by just completing a few simple upgrades or repairs to the various systems in the house.
Home inspectors are required by licensing bodies to truly and accurately report their findings. They are not allowed to change results of a home inspection because of pressure by the buyer, seller or other individual. If the home inspector is not following these guidelines they can be reported the licensing body, the associations they belong to, as well as to the Better Business Bureau.
