Pre-Listing Inspections (For home sellers)

One of the most popular inspections being requested! A pre-listing inspection helps prevent surprises for homeowners who are thinking about selling their home. A good inspection report makes your home more attractive to buyers and distinguishes your home from similar properties for sale.

Having a pre-listing inspection will allow you to see your home through the eyes of a critical third-party. A pre-listing inspection will permit you to make repairs ahead of time so that deficiencies will not become a negotiating stumbling block at the time of your sale.

One way to be sure you obtain a better price for your house is to have a home inspection before you list it. Pre-listing inspections can also prevent a lost sale because of confusion on an issue that is not a big problem, it will eliminate the need for multiple inspections if you are in a multi-offer situation, and it may encourage the buyer to waive the inspection contingency. It may also relieve the buyer’s concerns or suspicions and may help sell your house faster! A pre-listing inspection can also alert you to issues that are of immediate personal concerns.

We inspect your home and provide you with a comprehensive report complete with colour digital photographs, a binder and a summary of the inspection highlights. We also provide 10 copies of the summary report for distribution at your open house.
