"High Value" Home Inspection. Anyone familiar with this?

Hello, home inspector here from a small province in Canada. Our market is very hot right now and house values are sky rocketing.

I got a phone call from someone from outside the province looking to purchase a $1.2 million dollar home.

It's roughly 5500 sq/ft, several out buildings, indoor and outdoor pools, large hot tub, theater room, two kitchens etc etc etc.

It's much bigger and much more elaborate than I'm use to dealing with and the buyer wanted to know if I offered "High Value" real estate inspections. I should ad this will be a private sale with no real estate agents involved.

From what I'm reading a high value inspection is similar to a commercial inspection, which I'm use to, where I'd sub contract various trades to inspect various parts of the house. I.E. a pool guy, roofer, electrician and so on.

Is this typical? Is this common in higher value cities? It's rare to see anything sell for more than $500k in my area. Any insight would be greatly appreciated as it seems like this isn't a service offered in my area and I'd like to help this client out.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
