It is acceptable to partner with a real estate agent under certain circumstances. Which of the following circumstances is NOT acceptable?
  1. Paying a finder's fee
  2. Paying the agent's commission if deal falls through
  3. Paying no marketing fees
  4. All of the above
Explanation
Answer: D - It is acceptable to partner with a real estate agent under certain circumstances, but not under any of the above. Home inspectors should pay a finder's fee to a real estate agent for referrals. It is unethical to offer to pay the agent's commission if the client does not buy the home because of the inspection report. It is a conflict of interest to accept free advertising from real estate agents who may want you to provide "good" inspection reports in exchange for the marketing opportunities.
