As a seller, if you have owned your property for a period of time, an inspection can help identify potential problems and recommend preventive measures, which might avoid future expensive repairs. There is no such thing as a home that is too new or too well built to benefit from a professional inspection.

Eventually, your buyers are going to conduct an inspection. You may as well know what they are going to find by getting there first. Having an inspection performed ahead of time helps in many other ways:

• It allows you to see your home through the eyes of a critical third-party.
• It helps you to price your home realistically.
• It permits you to make repairs ahead of time so that...
• Defects won't become negotiating stumbling blocks later.
• There is no delay in obtaining the Use and Occupancy permit.
• You have the time to get reasonably priced contractors or make the repairs yourself, if qualified.
• It may encourage the buyer to waive the inspection contingency.
• It may alert you of items of immediate personal concern, such as radon gas or active termite infestation.
• It may relieve prospect's concerns and suspicions.
• It reduces your liability by adding professional supporting documentation to your disclosure statement.
• Alerting you to immediate safety issues before agents and visitors tour your home.
• Copies of the inspection report along with receipts for any repairs should be made available to potential buyers.





The Experts Take Notice...

"...home sellers are turning to new strategies to sell quickly and at the right price... hiring inspectors before they put their homes on the market.

Liz Moore, a broker in Newport News, Va., says her firm pays for a pre-listing inspection for all her sellers.

"It's fair to say that is the reason our listings sell 30 percent faster than the market average," she says. And early anecdotal evidence suggests that inspected houses 'consistently sell for a few thousand dollars more.'"
