Explanation
Answer: D - After delivering the inspection report to the client, you receive a call from the seller who wants a copy of the report. You should not discuss anything with him over the phone or mail a copy of the report to him. The inspection report belongs only to the individual who paid for the home inspection - the client. The seller, real estate agent, or other third parties have no right to the inspection report unless authorized by the client. If the client wants the report shared with another party, it is recommended the inspector remain neutral and have the client be responsible for the use of the report.
