Who should get a copy of the Home Inspection?

[Lisa Woods]

We are new to investing and just made our first purchase.  We knew there was a lot of work to be done and are in the process of setting that up, however, our property manager is asking for a copy of the Home Inspection and I am not comfortable with that.  Is this a good idea?

Hi @Lisa Woods,

Why would it be a bad thing for the property manager to know what she or he is managing? I wouldn't see an issue with this, personally. I'd happily share the inspection report, and then let her or him know what I did and didn't fix. 

Who knows. Maybe a year from now a tenant will be claiming that blablabla was broken when they moved in, and your property manager will be able to shut that back-and-forth down really quick by showing the tenant that portion of the inspection, potentially saving you lawyer fees.
