| Seller Inspections / Pre-listing Inspections Pre-listing inspections (seller inspections) are becoming increasingly more popular in the real estate industry because they virtually eliminate all the pitfalls and hassles associated with waiting to do the inspections after a buyer is found. Seller inspections are arranged and paid for by the seller, usually before the home goes on the market. The seller is the inspector’s client. Pre-listing inspections reveal safety and mechanical problems ahead of time, giving the seller time to make repairs and shop for competitive contractors. This may make the home show better and attract buyers. |

Advantages to the Seller
- The inspection report can assist the seller in realistically
pricing the home if problems exist or substantiate a higher
asking price if problems do not exist or have been corrected.
- A seller inspection reveals problems ahead of time which:
might make the home show better, allow the seller time to
shop for a contractor and make repairs, permits the seller to
attach paid invoices or estimates to a report, removes over-
inflated buyer procured estimates from the negotiation table.
- The report might alert the seller to any safety issues found before agents and buyers
tour the house.
- A seller inspection permits a clean inspection report by an unbiased third party to be
used as a marketing tool.
- A seller inspection is the ultimate gesture in forthrightness on the seller’s part and
may relieve a prospective buyer’s unfounded suspicions before they walk away.
- A seller inspection lightens negotiations and 11th hour renegotiations.
- A deal is less likely to fall apart the way they often do when a buyer’s inspection
unexpectedly reveals a problem.
