What client of mine would want to buy into a building that is poorly maintaned? I've found many problems, from deteriorated roofs, cracked foundations to leaking boilers. Problems which could cost my client a huge assessment after they become the new owner of the unit. It is prudent for the buyer to ask the home inspector what they check! The State of NJ has standards: http://www.state.nj.us/lps/ca/nonmedical/hiac.htm that must be followed along with insurance requirements and continuing education.
