Your client is interested in starting a home-based business in the home you are inspecting. When asked if the home is suitable for the type of business planned, you respond, "It is not appropriate for me to make a recommendation either way." Home inspectors are not required to determine the suitability of a home for a particular use based on inspection outcomes. Your role is to provide an objective summary of the home's condition so the client can make informed decisions related to the property.
