Preparing Your Home for an Inspection

When pre-owned homes come onto the market, they are rarely in perfect shape and most of them have that special "lived in" look. That is why you want to have a professional home inspection. The value of a professional home inspection is to confirm the proper working condition of major systems in the home: electrical, mechanical, plumbing and the integrity of its structural components on the day of the inspection. However, minor items often are identified during this inspection process.

Individually, these items are not a big issue, but the cumulative effect of many small items could be discouraging for a potential buyer. If a home seller and their agent know what to look for, many of these minor items can be identified and addressed prior to a professional inspection.

As a service to you and your clients, we have compiled a checklist of minor items often found in need of repair during a whole house inspection. If repairs are needed, plan to do them before the professional inspection is performed. It will ensure a smoother sale and contribute to a positive home inspection experience.
