THAT'S WHY RESIDENTIAL AGENTS AND BROKERS ARE RECOMMENDING EDR NEIGHBORHOOD ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS.

By recommending EDR-Certified home Inspectors, you can become a home buyer or seller’s hero. Advising your client to obtain important environmental information on and around a residential property during the home inspection process can ensure a hassle free closing.

Only EDR-Certified home inspectors are able to offer the EDR Neighborhood Environmental Report.™ Available for every residential property nationwide, the report draws on the nation’s most trusted and complete source of environmental data. What's more,  EDR-Certified inspectors are trained to communicate the report’s findings to the buyer or seller in a balanced, fact-based way, much like they do with a home inspection. They are also trained to provide follow up direction where necessary.

For the home buyer, the report identifies potential environmental issues on or near a specific property that may threaten a family’s health or the value of their investment.  Information provided includes locations of reported leaking underground tanks, landfills, “meth labs,” hazardous waste sites, and other issues that can contaminate soil, groundwater and the air quality in a home or create other health issues.

For the home seller, buying a report and disclosing any potential issues may afford the seller – and you – some liability protection. In addition, a home with a clean record, free from environmental issues, is a valuable selling feature.

Today, environmental issues are gaining increased attention. By recommending EDR Certified Home Inspectors to your buyers and sellers, you are ensuring peace of mind and a hassle free closing for all parties involved in a real estate transaction. When your clients sleep better, so do you.
