Pre Sale Inspections
Why is a pre-sale home inspection helpful for the sale?
Statistically, a home with a pre-sale inspection sells faster than one that waits until a sale is pending.

BENEFICIAL FOR THE SELLER:
• Allows seller to address problems ahead of time without being rushed by time constraints from “fix-it”
contingencies
• Encourages a Quick Sell
When the house has already been inspected, chances of closing the deal increase
• Often results in a better selling price
• Less likelihood of litigation for improper disclosure
BENEFICIAL FOR THE BUYER:
• Saves money on the inspection
• Saves time when desiring to close the deal
• Provides full disclosure of home’s condition outside of stressful time constraints
Without a doubt, pre-sale is the best time for a home inspection for everyone involved. All too often, a home inspection is performed as a final contingency of a sale with little time to absorb its impact. Any reported deficiencies at this time of high emotional stress can easily be blown out of proportion causing an overreaction and possible termination of the deal. People are far more receptive to such deficiencies when they are disclosed to them up front. Pre-sale inspections also allow the seller to address defects prior to showing the home, thus removing problems ahead of time.
