Real estate transactions are becoming more complex, and lawsuits are becoming a regular occurrence.

A Win-Win Investment

More and more real estate professionals are encouraging – even requiring – home buyers to invest in a home inspection before they purchase a property. A growing number of real estate agents are even suggesting prelisting inspections to sellers. The reason for these trends is simple: Home inspections are a win-win-win for everyone involved in the transaction.

Buyers learn about the property up front, so they can proceed with greater confidence and peace of mind. Sellers, especially those who’ve had a prelisting inspection, benefit from a faster sale with fewer surprises as closing nears. Finally, the real estate agent, closing attorney, and finance and insurance professionals benefit from more efficient transactions with less chance for unpleasant, and sometimes costly, post-closing problems.

Real Estate Professionals who provide for their clients, or who routinely council their clients to obtain a home inspection, experience:

• Reduced Liability
• Improved image and credibility
• Less litigation
• More sales
• less negotiations
• Reduced selling time
• Less buyer discomfort
• Curtailed buyer remorse
• Higher sale prices

With a detailed, professionally prepared home inspection report in hand, you need not continually overcome buyer objections related to the condition of the property. If the inspection findings are taken into account when determining the asking price, the buyer has no motivation to negotiate a lower price based on the condition of the property.

Insight provided from the inspection report allows the seller to enhance the appearance and condition of the property before it reaches the market

Result… A Faster Sale at a Higher Price

Home inspection helps everyone in the deal. It’s not just for the buyer, the seller or the agent… an inspection helps hold the entire deal together.

When your client has a pre-sale inspection done, a 2 X 2 ft sign will be posted on the property along side your Realtors sign acknowledging that the home has been professionally inspected and a report of the inspection is available for viewing giving details about the structure, mechanical systems and safety of the home. This means more credibility for you and your client.
