A Pre-listing home inspection is performed before the property is listed on the market. There are numerous advantages to all parties involved.
Advantages to the seller:
• The seller can schedule the inspection at their convenience.
• It may alert the seller of any possible issues that they not be aware of.
• The seller can assist the inspector during the inspection, (ie if any furniture has to be moved). This tends to allow the inspector to fully inspect any areas of possible concern providing greater disclosure.
• The report can help the seller realistically price the home if issues exist.
• The report can help the seller substantiate a higher asking price if there are no issues or they been corrected.
• A Pre-Listing inspection reveals concerns ahead of time which:
1:May make the home show better.
2:Gives the seller time to repair defects or obtain competitive quotes for repairs.
3:Allows the seller to attach repair estimates or the paid invoices to the inspection report.
4:Can remove over inflated buyer procured estimates from the negotiation.
5:Can reduce 11th hour negotiations.
6:The report may alert the seller of any immediate safety issues found, before agents and visitors tour the property
7: The report provides a third-party, unbiased opinion to offer potential buyers.
8: A Pre-Listing Inspection is the ultimate disclosure on the behalf of the seller.This can be used as an effective marketing tool.
