And our interest is in merely trying to quantify and qualify the home for you.If you have the home inspection in hand it's a spec sheet that you can shop around and get bids on, use to intimidate  Negotiate with the seller, offer to rehabbers (as a wholesaler) all without exposing you to any more liability, or stress, or awkward situations outside of the normal real estate purchasing process.And finally to address your last point, I know a couple Home Inspectors, and they do their own flips, also most come from a construction/architecture background so to say they don't know as much as a contractor is silly.
