PRE-LIST HOME INSPECTION CAN FACILITATE A QUICKER SALE

By
Real Estate Sales Representative with BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS REAL ESTATE SIGNATURE SERVICE

MANY SELLERS ARE NOW HAVING A PRE-LIST HOME INSPECTION

 

Having a home inspection done before listing can often result in a quicker sale. Buyers and Sellers are becoming more educated about buying and selling . Thanks to the internet we now have information available at our fingertips with the click of a button.

When I first got into real estate back in 1987, house inspections were not performed often but have become an essential part of most transactions now and most offer now contain a condition upon the inspection of the property.

Having a pre-list inspection serves two functions.

  • The Seller can identify any deficiencies and correct them, and
  • It helps lead to a firm sale much faster when the inspection report is made available to the buyer immediately. Having receipts for any repairs that were completed is also very helpful.

This also applies to Well Water Testing and Septic Inspections.  Having those documents available just might make potential buyers move forward with submitting an offer, and remove any doubts they may have about the property.

IINSPECTIONLOCKBOXES FOR SAFETY

Lockboxes were not being used much back when I began my real estate career.   Agents had to pick up the key for the houses they were showing from the listing office.  After showing the properties we then had to return the keys. All this was very time consuming and very inefficient.  This also made it more difficult for other agents to show the property.  They had to wait until the keys were returned.

Having lockboxes installed on the doors made it much easier to show the property. It also helps the Seller as all the agents had instant access to the property.  

Lockboxes have codes which are given to an agent when calling  to request an appointment.  No one else has access to the code, making it a relatively safe and efficient system.

I agree. My husband and I did several flips back in the late 90s. We had a great contractor that would pretty much serve as a through inspection. We normally always had an appraisal done before advertising it for sale.

This is very good information to share with prospective home sellers.
