Before the closing takes place, it is customary that the buyer makes a final walk-thru inspection of the property.
It is this time that the client has the ability to see the home void of any personal belongings. While conducting the inspection the client should be asking themselves:
"Is the property in the same condition as when the they initially saw the home?"
"Are there any damages visible that were possibly concealed during the home inspection?"
"Have any new damages occurred since the home inspection?"
"Are all the items repaired that were agreed upon as a result of the home inspection?"
These questions should be answered prior to the actual day of closing, but oftentimes it is not possible, as the seller may be moving out the day of closing, and not able to get everything done prior to the time of the inspection.
