Sellers Pre-Listing Inspections:
Seller inspections (sometimes referred
to as pre-listing inspections) are becoming more popular because they virtually eliminate all the pitfalls and hassles
associated with waiting to do the inspections until a buyer is found. In many ways, waiting to schedule inspections
until after a home goes under agreement, is too late.
Seller inspections are arranged and
paid for by the seller, usually just before the home goes on the market. The seller is the inspector's client.
The inspector works for the seller and generates a report for the seller. The seller then typically makes multiple
copies of the report and shares them with potential buyers that tour the home for sale. Seller inspections are
a benefit to all parties in a real estate transaction.
