Am I required to attend the inspection?
In short, no. We welcome but do not require client's or their real estate broker's (if applicable) attendance; however, we will need access to the interior of the property in order to complete the home inspection. Our inspectors do not have access to Supra lockboxes but can open a contractor lockbox with a provided code.
