HOME INSPECTOR - STATUS UPDATE

Yesterday we received a call from the PM stating that the RH sales rep (who is currently on vacation) told him to contact us and to work with us regarding our request for a home inspector.  The conversation with the PM was a little wishy washy and at first he still was not very accommodating.  He indicated that he didn't want to be the one that had to coordinate scheduling; and we informed him that the home inspector prefers to work directly with us and we will handle the scheduling and deal with any findings accordingly.  After a long conversation about how it is his responsibility (and job on the line) to ensure that he enforces RH policy that no unauthorized contractors/individuals are on the property without the present of an RH representative; he stated that the home inspector could be present during the pre-drywall meeting and final walk through.  However, if the home inspector is on the property at any other time; he didn't want to know about it.  Also, when we asked him when we would know when the pre-drywall meeting would be; he informed us that he will be able to tell us 2 days prior to the meeting; however, was not able to give us a tentative date.  We assume it will be some time after we meet with Guardian, which is currently scheduled for 06/30/2011.  Plus, we assume that RH will need some additional time for electric/plumbing to accommodate our custom requests.

Since we are in the early stages of framing, we have decided to wait until our RH sales rep returns from vacation (next week) and plan to meet with her to make sure that we are all on the same page and express how disappointed we with how this was handled. 

To be continued...

@BD - Our building cycle is actually 90 days (June 1st - Aug 29th); however, they gave the PM additional days to accommodate our custom requests...that is why our PM stated he has 100+ days.
