Selling your home can be an overwhelming process, especially when it comes to the crucial step of the buyer’s home inspection. The last thing you want is for the inspection report to bring the negotiations to a halt. At Evolve Property Inspections, we understand how important it is for both buyers and sellers to be informed about the condition of a home and how preparing for the inspector’s visit will help ensure a more favorable outcome. In this article, we’ll explore four ways to be proactive and ready your home for the home inspection process.
If you have any issues in your home, it's best to take care of them before they end up as documented flaws on the inspection report. If there's any maintenance you've been putting off, now is the time to accomplish that. Delayed maintenance could result in more costly issues that the new owners won't want to pay for.
Have you completed any major home repairs, improvements, or renovations during your time there? Any paperwork or documentation you can produce will not only help the inspector but will demonstrate the upkeep of your home to the buyer. This will go a long way in establishing trust and reassuring them about the condition of your home.
A clean home that is free of clutter will not only make the inspector's job easier but will also enhance the presentation of your home to potential buyers. Keep in mind that the inspector will need to be able to access the basement or crawl space, attic, and utility areas. The entrances to these spaces should be unlocked and free of obstructions.
The best way to prepare for a buyer's home inspection is to schedule your seller inspection, also known as a pre-listing inspection. If you want to ensure that there are no significant surprises to derail the sale of your home, this type of inspection will achieve that and many other benefits. A pre-listing inspection will assist you in making your home as appealing as possible to buyers.
