Home Inspection for Seller (Pre-Listing)

To avoid the unpleasant surprises a Home Inspection may bring to light, homeowners looking to put their house on the market can opt for a prelisting home inspection, which provides sellers with a thorough report before the home goes on the market. Sellers have the opportunity to make necessary repairs before potential buyers start touring the property and to avoid a deal that falls through due to structural or maintenance problems that could lead to other potential buyers steering clear of a property that has issues.

Here are five reasons to get a Pre-Listing Inspection before put the house in the market:

 Advance notice. Every house comes with its fair share of quirks and problems, and you're probably at least vaguely aware of a few of them. If you're planning to put your property on the market, an inspection report ahead of time will help you see all the potential problems together, including some you may not have known about

DIY option. For simple repairs, however, the prelisting inspection gives you the added benefit of being able to take on projects yourself. When negotiating with a buyer, necessary repairs will typically require you to bring in professionals for all work done, even when the fixes are simple, and it will cost you a lot more.

Contractor of choice. For those bigger projects that do require professionals to come out, time is also on your side when your home isn't yet on the market. Rather than needing to find a Contractor in a specific time frame to appease the buyer, you can shop around for the right price, availability and skill to ensure you're satisfied with the work.

Informed pricing. Of course, there are some projects you're just not willing to take on,         instead, that can be reflected in the price. Work with your Real Estate Agent to establish the right sale price, taking into account whatever issues you can't – or aren't willing to – fix before putting the house on the market. 

Buyer may accept results. The fact that your house has already had an inspection can serve as a plus if included in marketing descriptions of the house, especially in a tight seller's market where buyers have to compete with each other. Buyers may be willing to accept the prelisting inspection report and avoid an additional inspection during the due diligence period, moving the process along faster.
