Home sellers wishing to maximize the opportunity for multiple offers will in many cases undertake to do a pre-listing inspection. These inspections frequently offer home buyers enough comfort to drop the inspection condition from their offer.
A pre-listing inspection is essentially the same as a our standard inspection. An available add-on is a report summary consisting of a single 8-1/2 x 11 page typically featuring a photo or two of the house on the front and a narrative summary on the back. Because some sellers don’t feel there’s a need for this additional marketing piece, HomeCore does not build it into our price. Sellers choosing this option will receive a high resolution summary, in PDF format, suitable for printing or attaching to your agent’s listing material. The optional Pre-listing inspection summary page is an additional $50.00.
Truly a pleasure meeting with you, Rob, and thank you for your patience and for sharing your breadth of knowledge with me. I certainly learned much in terms of important issues – and I feel more confident with the sale of my house.
The pre-list summary is both clearly informative and descriptive. I realize this report demanded time and I am so appreciative – looks great! – and fair (pics turned out well!). I know this information will provide the buyer confidence as well.
Thanks again and best wishes,
- Michelle
Benefits of a pre-listing inspection include:
- A potentially faster sale.
- A potentially higher selling price.
- Mitigating the likelihood of potential buyers hiring their own inspector.
- Preparing buyers ahead of time for what their own inspector may find, should they choose to hire one anyway, thereby limiting renegotiation potential.
- The option to make improvements or to reflect home conditions in the selling price.
- An optional summary (which reduces the cost of the actual inspection).
- The ability to transfer ownership* of the report to a purchaser.
