Inspector gave a glowing report of the Condo; yet presented a written report that not only contradicted his oral report, but indicated a cost of approximately $7K of repairs because of safety issues.

Inspector gave contradictory statements about the condition of the condo, which we were purchasing: 1.He gave a glowing oral presentation of condo's condition, yet his written report contradicted the actual condition of the unit. 2.He indicated the building was built in 1977, but the advertised online condo indicated the building was built in 1981. 3.When questioned about his oral report and was shown defects[e.g.an inoperative glass top stove with a nickel-sized hole; and an inoperative toilet with rusty,decaying inner parts held together by foil] he tried to rationalize what he had previously said. 4.His written report included over $25K estimated repairs and replacements primarily because of safety issues; yet his oral report said everything is in excellent working condition.. 5.We complained to the owner and the inspector after receiving these contradictory reports and requested return of the inspection fee; however, the owner would not allow us to verbally discuss our dissatisfaction. 6.We voided the contract with the sellers . User's recommendation: Make sure that you check with BBB about service providers before you employ them. This company is not a member of BBB; therefore, only use providers that are recommended by BBB.
