Eventually your buyers are going to conduct an inspection. Be pro-active and have a pre-sale home inspection done before you list the property. Don’t wait until after the selling price has already been negotiated to find out about a costly problem.
For sellers, a pre-sale home inspection benefits you in several ways:
- See your home through the eyes of a critical third-party
- Price your home realistically
- Identify defects in advance so you can…
- Avoid nasty surprises that can turn into lengthy delays or deal killers later on
- Address any immediate safety concerns before visitors start touring your home
- Save money by finding reasonably priced contractors or doing the repairs yourself
- Deal with contractors of your choosing
- Schedule repairs for times that fit your schedule instead of rushing to do them at the last minute
- Prepare yourself and conduct negotiations with confidence
- Reduce your liability by adding a professional inspection report to your disclosure statement
- Save time if the buyer agrees to waive the inspection contingency
For best results, copies of the inspection report along with receipts for any repairs should be made available to potential buyers.
In addition, copies of the pre-sale home inspection report can be sent directly from HomePro Building Inspections, LLC to the buyers upon request.
