Man o’ man do I have a pet peeve when I see a contract with “Home Inspection for Informational Purposes Only.” A wolf in sheep’s clothing?
What does “Info Only” mean? So if you find information about a $2,000 rotting deck… at least you have the information? Kinda “nice to know?”

A wise agent once said to me (I guess I could just cut out that part and others would think that I AM the “wise agent” but that doesn’t seem right), that if you really only want it for “information,” then great… do it AFTER closing.

There are too many loopholes in these contracts and I’ve been burned too many times with that clause. Why not just put in the contract your true intentions. Is if buyer worried about a home falling off the cliff, then put in the contract that you will waive the first $1,000 or $%,000 of issues.
