Residential Seller Inspection

Residential Seller Inspection

Having your property inspected before getting it listed for sale can bring in some benefits like:

  1. You can choose a home inspector with expert credentials as per your choice and not on one appointed by the buyers
  2. Getting better value for it
  3. Customers can be more easily convinced that there is no problem with the property
  4. Getting your home sold in lesser time
  5. Getting read of trouble making home inspectors

With a pre-listing Dallas home inspection, you always recognize and fix problems with a property before hand and can also reflect the expenditure in the selling price.

Difficulties with a property can be used as a negotiating tool against you, and this will give you a chance to take that weapon off the negotiation table.

Before you ask for a Dallas home inspection, you can take care of certain things by yourself ensuring that the inspectors do not find any fault with them.

  • Check the electric, gas and water connections are in perfect condition in your home. Also, keep your kitchen appliances in perfect working conditions and make sure that they have a clear space around them for easy and safe operation.
  • Check out the water heater, the air conditioners, and all other electrical appliances, so that the inspector never finds any problem with them. During a Dallas home inspection, these items are commonly considered individually, and you must also ensure that the inspector has a transparent access to each one of them.
  • Another thing that you can do by yourself is to check out the doors and windows in the house are accessible and also the staircases – both indoors and outdoors.
  • During a pre-listing Dallas home inspection, all these features of your property will be checked by the inspector. So, you can always help him in giving you a flawless report by taking care of these requirements described above.

There is no restriction for a homeowner to be present during the Dallas home inspection; nonetheless, he/she should be present during the inspection.

A pre-listing Dallas home inspection involves checking out the same features and items those are considered during a pre-purchase inspection.

A Dallas home inspection will also include checking out the structure of the house to understand its exact condition, and this plays a pivotal role in determining the pre-purchase inspection cost that you should get for your property according to the market standards.

Though many homeowners are still skeptical about the advantages of pre-listing Dallas home inspection, considering that it will bring down the price of their properties by identifying problems, but in reality, it does exactly the opposite, and a third party home inspection report can always boost the chances of a property getting sold for a higher price.

Copies of the Dallas home inspection report, along with receipts for any repairs, should be made available to potential buyers.  Vanguard Property Inspections can also come back for a re-inspection after repairs have been made.
