Seller agent strongly implying to use their preferred inspector

[Kunal Lakhwani]

I am in the process of buying my first rental property. I scheduled an appointment for inspection next week, and it is not with the inspection company that the seller agent recommended. They seem to not like this fact and are strongly asking me to consider booking with someone they “recommended” because he knows their business.

Is this normal? Or they could be hiding things that their recommended inspector will let it pass but others may not? Should I be concerned?
