When These Disclosures Are Ignored Or Incomplete, Sellers, Buyers, And Inspectors Can Suffer Large Losses. This Is Demonstrated In A Recent Forensic Engineering Case. Realtors Need To Educate Sellers And Buyers On Disclosure Requirements, Should Not Recommend Nor Regulate Inspectors Because Of Conflict Of Interest, But Should Recommend Hiring Qualified State Licensed Professional Engineers.
