I know an aspiring innkeeper who has put an offer on a b&b. Here's the scenario:
They put an offer for a b&b. The buyers of course want an inspection. The owner's b&b is the kind where people tend hang around all day in their rooms instead of getting up and out after breakfast. An inspection needs to be done, but there is no day where all the guests are checking out.
Do you let an inspector in the rooms that are occupied?
Do you inform the guest that a "maintenance" man needs to get into their rooms for 1/2 an hour? (Yes, it could will take about 1/2 hour for each guest room). The guests at this point don't know the b&b is for sale, nor should they. Anything can happen!
Do you say to the buyer that the inspector can inspect those rooms that are available, but will have to come back a second time to get the other rooms?
How would you deal with the guests when inspectors need to get up in attic spaces, inspect windows both interior and exterior, get on the roof, etc?
