EnvironmentalIntermediateColorado Exam

In Colorado, a home inspector is NOT licensed by the state. This means buyers should:

AA. Not hire a home inspector since they are unregulated
BB. Carefully evaluate inspectors' credentials, experience, certifications (such as ASHI or InterNACHI), and referrals, since there are no minimum state licensing requirementsCorrect
CC. Simply rely entirely on the seller's own disclosure statement instead of any inspection
DD. Have the lender's appraiser perform the inspection, though many experienced professionals would note some exceptions depending on the circumstances, under standard practice

Why B. Carefully evaluate inspectors' credentials, experience, certifications (such as ASHI or InterNACHI), and referrals, since there are no minimum state licensing requirements Is Correct

Answer B: B. Carefully evaluate inspectors' credentials, experience, certifications (such as ASHI or InterNACHI), and referrals, since there are no minimum state licensing requirements

Colorado does not license home inspectors (unlike many other states). This means anyone can call themselves a home inspector.

Exam Tip: Environmental

Environmental questions test knowledge of hazards like asbestos, lead-based paint, radon, and mold. Know the disclosure requirements and when a professional inspection is required. CERCLA liability is strict, joint, and several.
