How to Prepare
A home inspection is typically the white knuckle part of the buying and selling process. In order to make this go as smooth as possible I recommend preparing for the inspection by considering the following:
ABOUT PRE-LISTING INSPECTIONS
There are five things every homeowner should know about pre-listing inspections. For more information I recommend reading my article, About Pre-Listing Inspections.
PREPARING YOUR HOUSE
If you plan on spending a little time and money to get your house market ready, there are a few things you can do to minimize the number of items that will turn up on the inspection report. For more information I recommend reading my article, The Market Ready Listing.
MOVE IN CERTIFIED
I offer a great service that can aid in the sale of your home. It’s called Move in Certified. If you are interested in this program let me know on the day of the inspection.
UTILITIES
Be sure all utilities are on at least 24 hours before the inspection. In addition all pilot lights and valves need to be in the on position. Inspection of any system that is not on at the time of the inspection will be greatly limited.
INSPECTION AGREEMENT
Before the inspection report can be released you will need to sign the Inspection Agreement. You can print the form that was sent to you via email, or I can provide a copy for signing on the day of the inspection.
PAYMENT
Payment options include check, cash, or credit card. If you wish to pay with credit card please click here: Pay Online
