Northeast Building Inspections
of New Hampshire
Buyers, Sellers & Investors benefit from a thorough, professional building inspection.
Why Sellers benefit from a Pre-Inspection?
More than ever before, sellers are benefitting from a pre-listing inspection. Identifying potential problems and having your home in optimal condition prior to listing makes the selling process easier and ensures your home will sell quickly and at the best price. This highly competitive real estate market requires that sellers step up their game by preparing for every aspect of selling including that inevitable inspection conducted by a professional of the buyer’s choice. Even minor unidentified issues can cause unnecessary wariness in buyers that is better avoided whenever possible. Not only can these events devalue the property in the buyers mind but often result in sellers losing their best advantage and ultimately settling for a much lower selling price. Unexpected issues can also cause delays, costly last minute repairs and potential loss of the sale.
Identifying potential problems with your home gives you the opportunity to correct the defects or disclose them, removing the element of surprise, doubt and buyer advantage that these events often create. Waiting until the buyer’s home inspector finds them means that you might have to act quickly to keep the deal from falling apart. Hiring a contractor and getting repairs done quickly may result in higher costs than if you had the opportunity to take bids and plan ahead for the repairs. Sellers may also choose to simply offer certain issues as is. You can often negotiate with a buyer to accept issues in the current condition by stipulating that they are reflected in the purchase price. Negotiating this after the fact is often much more difficult and costly to the seller. Even if your home is not in “top condition” your home will appear much more desirable and the seller’s integrity remains unquestioned.
It suffices to say that anything you can do as the seller to eliminate unexpected surprises will also prevent stress, setbacks and keep the process proceeding smoothly. Ultimately, a pre-inspection provides the best advantage for selling your home quickly and will enhance the selling price.
