"As always, we appreciate the member taking the time to leave a review and we also appreciate the very frustrating process of selling a home but regretfully, we were unable to give her another customer's records and that is not what she wanted to hear. She was very distraught, excited and argumentative. I tried to ask her if there was something specific she was looking for but after several minutes she would only tell me it had something to do with cracks in the foundation. But then she said there was no issue with cracks in the foundation. It was puzzling at best. After she hung up on me, her husband called back to say that she was just getting overwhelmed with the process. We had the previous owners of this home as customers with our last visit being six years ago. We did not perform the inspection required for that closing and so our last records with the previous owner amounted to simple general services. When this member called us in 2018, she requested information involving possible structural work being done to the home. We had not yet performed an inspection for her closing and so we weren't sure what type of information she was after. That wasn't the issue as far as we were concerned. We will NOT release property or service information to anyone other than the property owner. Period. Moreover, most work done 6 years prior would have no bearing on work needed today. What this member was asking for was outside of the scope of a standard Wood Destroying Insect and Moisture Inspection and Report but again, we had not performed the inspection for this member's purchase and had not yet performed the inspection for this next purchase. We simply had no information to give her. We suspect that this member's buyers had a home inspection that noted issues of interest or concern and she was trying to eliminate these problems for the new sale. This is very common and we understand as much as anyone could. But we cannot provide information related to the condition of a property for the purposes of its sale outside of the four corners of the standard Wood Destroying Insect & Moisture Reports. These are legal representations that a buyer will rely on when completing the purchase of a home and we take that responsibility very seriously. It is not necessary to defend our reputation here. Our records with all verifiable, reliable sources speak for themselves."
"We thank the member very much for the kind words. It has been a pleasure being of service to her thus far and we hope to be of service as long as the members needs us."
