Home Inspection Tips for Sellers
A home inspection is typically thought of as being for buyers. A buyer will get a home inspection done of the house they want to buy in order to get a better understanding of the property and to negotiate with the seller any repairs that need to be done. However, a home inspection can be just as valuable to sellers. How? For all the same reasons as a buyer! The purpose of a home inspection is to determine the condition of the house by identifying deficiencies and future hazards. Knowing this before putting a house on the market can help a seller make necessary fixes, which makes the house more lucrative to begin with, and put the buyer more at ease. A seller’s home inspection may increase the likelihood of showings, and reduce time on the market. A seller’s home inspection can keep everyone from being caught off guard, so here are four home inspection tips for sellers.
