Normally, the spring homebuying seasons means more business for Kyle Ruppâs Lancaster-based home inspection business, Pillar to Post. Before pulling the trigger on such a large purchase, would-be buyers typically order a home inspection that can flag problems with a property. The subsequent inspection report can then lead to new negotiations with the seller, which take time and could include dropping the price because of needed repairs, or requiring fixes before settlement. But with fierce competition for the limited number of available homes, many buyers are trying to appeal to sellers by removing home inspections from the sale process. As a result, Ruppâs adapted to the market by offering post-sale inspections.
