At Richardson Home Buyers, LLC, our goal is to help positively transform the lives of the individuals and communities in which we operate. We can only do this by respecting all individuals with which we interact as we want to leave everyone in a better state than when we met. Due to this, we have very strict guidelines regarding inspections and walk-throughs. In no particular order
- RSVP Required: Anyone desiring to view a property must RSVP for the inspection. It is critical that we know the names and contact information of anyone coming to the inspection including your client, contractor, property manager, etc. For the safety and security of everyone involved, if you have not RSVP’d for the inspection, you will not be allowed to view the property.
- Check-In Required: You must check in with our Representative at the property inspection and walk-through. This is once again to ensure the safety and security of everyone at the inspection.
- Respect The Property: Our utmost priorities are the tenants and homeowners we work with. Do not move any belongings or touch anything without permission of the occupant. We deal with many situations including dealing with hoarders. What may seem like junk to you is very important to them.
- Respect Occupant Privacy: There may be certain rooms, etc that have been requested that we do not enter. You must respect the privacy of occupants. Many people who work nights, etc may be sleeping in certain rooms and so on. We understand that seeing the entire property is very important, but please simply estimate any repairs in this situation.
- Don’t Harass Occupants: As said above, you must check in with our representative on arrival. Do not arrive early or show up late and ask the occupant a ton of questions. We will be happy to get answers to any questions you may have.
- No Early/Late Arrivals: Again, please do not arrive early or late for inspections. We have set schedules for walk-throughs with the goal of minimizing disruption and inconvenience in the lives of the occupants. If you are unable to make an inspection/walk-through on time, then please send a representative (e.g. your contractor) who can.
- Pictures, Videos, Layout Sketch, etc. Available After Inspection: If you are unable to make an inspection, there are generally pictures, videos, layout sketches and/or measurements available after the walk-through.
- Keep Your Comments To Yourself: Please keep all of your comments, positive or negative, regarding the condition of the property to yourself. Many occupants will take your comments in a negative way and it can negatively impact their mood and openness to showing the property. Some will also be agitated and combative. It is therefore in your best interest to simply keep your comments, positive or negative, to yourself.
- No Additional Access After Inspection: We work to minimize the amount of disruptions property occupants may experience. Due to this, it is highly unlikely we will be able to give you additional access to the property after the property inspection. We do however make pictures, videos, layout sketches, measurements, and inspection reports available after the inspection has taken place.
- No Offers Or Business Discussions At Inspection: The purpose of the inspection is for you to be able to physically see the place. We will not be doing any kind of negotiation or discussion at or during the inspection. Any questions you may have can be addressed after the inspection
