A few reasons come to mind.
What if the Square Footage of the premises stated in the Tax Records is less than the Seller believes it to be - but the Seller cannot find the Appraisal they received when purchasing the property?

First up are: Title "Inspection" and Home Warranty
Two items to be done immediately and concurrently by your listing broker should be a "Title Inspection" and placing a Seller's Home Warranty on your property.
By "Title Inspection" I mean having a Title & Escrow company run the property through their system to see what "clouds" may exist - and I don't mean Active Rain Clouds! This is referred to as a Preliminary Title Report.
