Pre-Sale Home Inspection

Surprise! It can be great fun at a birthday party, but not when it may delay or threaten the sale of your property!

Such as a hidden water leak can result in unseen wood damage, or require bathroom repairs. Could there be termites? A crack in your heating unit? Is the electrical system in your home up to today’s code requirements? Are there little things that need attention like a cracked window pane, drippy faucet or chipped tile?

Having your own home inspection takes the surprise out of the picture for the buyer. It also allows you the advantage of taking corrective action on the needed repairs so that when the buyer’s inspector examines your property he cannot make them an issue.

If there are problems, you’ll have time to get competitive bids at regular rates . . . rather than paying overtime to meet a closing deadline that may be just a couple of days away.

Disclosure of the condition of your home also can protect you by reducing the chance of post-closing problems.

A pre-sale inspection is something to which you may want to give some thought!
