When is the seller introduction typically done?

The seller introduction is typically done before anyone else arrives because it sets the stage for the entire interaction during the home inspection process. This introduction allows the inspector to establish a rapport with the seller, ensuring that any relevant information about the property can be shared openly. It also provides an opportunity for the inspector to explain their role, outline the inspection process, and address any questions the seller might have before the home inspection begins. By doing the introduction at this point, it helps to create a cooperative atmosphere which is crucial for a successful inspection. Establishing this connection early on ensures that all parties are on the same page, leading to a smoother inspection experience.
