It is because Realtors are crooks. That's about it. We also had to tack down assignment clauses so that realtors wouldn't re-sell their client's houses for more and pocket the difference.

I also want to see mandatory home inspection, seems common sense.

I'm more interested in mandatory house inspections at a regular intervals, rather than as part of a sale.

Ew, nobody needs more mandatory red tape for their private property. Busybodies like you make life a hellish nightmare of compliance with crushing systems that bloat their way into every facet of life. What you are describing is megalomania by slices.
