If you are selling your home, looking for ways to beat out the competition is very important. One of the most overlooked ways of doing this is to pay for a pre-inspection. Do you know what this means? If so, have you ever given it any thought?
Generally speaking, a pre-inspection is when the seller pays for the home inspection before they put the property on the market. What does this do, you may ask? First off, it gives the seller the chance to fix any problems that could hold up a deal later on down the line. To go along with this, a pre-inspection is also very important in drawing in buyers as well. After all, most buyers know that a home inspection could make or break a deal. This happens time and time again. But when a home is pre-inspected, this is out of the question.
And of course, anytime that you can offer a cash incentive to a buyer they are sure to like it. Even though a home inspection only costs a few hundred dollars, it is something that the buyer will not have to pay for out of their own pocket. This may not be enough to completely win over the heart of a buyer, but it definitely helps; especially if they are trying to decide between your home and one that is comparable but requires a home inspection.
Setting up a pre-inspection is not difficult. In fact, you will do this in the same manner as you would if you were buying a home. All you need to do is call a home inspection company, and tell them what you are trying to do. As long as you are willing to pay, they will provide you with a home inspection in no time at all. It does not matter if you are the buyer or the seller.
Overall, more and more sellers are beginning to realize the benefits of paying for a pre-inspection. While this will cost you money, it will save you a lot of time and stress when a buyer finally makes a bid on your home. Since there is no home inspection to hold up the process, after a deal is agreed upon everything can be finalized quickly.Mark Moebius
