Potential home buyers want to purchase a home that is in tip-top shape, no matter the age of the home. That's why having a Pre-Listing Inspection makes complete sense.
Also:
Having a home inspection before you put your house on the market will allow you to understand any current or potential problem areas with the home that can be resolved before the buyers arrive. Therefore, your home will be in better condition for viewing, making it more marketable and this will help you attain the maximum selling price for the home.
Resolving problems prior to the buyer's inspection will save you money in two other ways as well.
First, when you know what needs to be repaired in advance of the sale you can obtain multiple bids for the work that needs to be done and select the best contractor at the best price.
Secondly,the work can be done by the contractor in a time frame that fits his schedule as well there by avoiding the "Rush Charges" to get the work completed.
Finally,
So let's review the facts: Having your home inspected before the first buyer shows up will help you to sell the home for more money, reduce the cost of the needed repairs, and minimize your frustration with the entire sales process. Where's the down side to getting a Pre-Listing Inspection?
