Sellers ask me all the time whether or not pre-listing inspections are important. The answer is, undoubtedly, yes.

While you aren’t required to do them, they can be very helpful to the transaction.

By doing a pre-listing inspection and making any recommended repairs ahead of time, you are put in a better position as a seller.

Additionally, it will make buyers feel more calm in general about purchasing your property.

As another way of helping your listing, we can actually market it using our certified pre-owned program, which can earn you top dollar.

Pre-listing inspections make buyers feel more calm about purchasing your property.

A pre-listing inspection will also allow you to spread out the costs of repairs.

Instead of a one-time lump sum, you will have more freedom to disperse costs across a period of time prior to listing. This way, you won’t be in the bind of being under contract while scrambling to make necessary repairs.

If you have any other questions or would like more information, feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
