Existing law regulates a person who performs certain home inspections for a fee in connection with a transfer of real property. Existing law provides that it is the duty of a home inspector who is not licensed as a general contractor, structural pest control operator, or architect, or registered as a professional engineer to conduct a home inspection with the degree of care that a reasonably prudent home inspector would exercise. Under this bill, if a home inspector observes any shade of yellow corrugated stainless steel tubing, as defined, during a home inspection, the home inspector would be required to include that observation and a specified notification in the home inspection report. The bill would require the degree of care of a reasonably prudent home inspector to be used in determining whether a home inspector has complied with that requirement.
