Repair per inspection report

[Chris Bernhardt]

What I am wondering is if say on Kurts list or Jims list of findings if there's a recommendation to repair everything down to even the most mundane deficiency?

I can't speak for Mitenbuler, but that's certainly not the case in my reports. I only recommend repairing my favorite mundane deficiencies.

Chris...

I recommend repairing safety hazards only; it's prudent to fix 'em, and ya can't say I didn't warn ya.

Other items I list as deficient, why, and perhaps what it might take to fix. I also break those secondary items down into Major or Minor Repair items (typically hundreds versus thousands).

Once in a while a lender will get ahold of an inspection report, for example on a VA loan, and require a "clear inspection report". Clear of what?

The function of the report is to present information and it doesn't have as a purpose to be a punch list.

Yes, I just tell the client that the bank has to tell him / her what need to be fixed. I'll just keep making lists.
