Sellers Inspection

Virtually eliminate all hassles a buyers inspection causes • • No more renegotiations. No more deals that fall through when the home inspector finds a problem. No more does the Seller have to deal with inflated cost estimates that cost him or her money. No more will the agent spend countless hours and dollars in energy and advertising to get a contract that is "blown out of the water" by surprise defects.

Knowing the defects creates enormous benefits • • • It will allow the agent and the Seller to discuss what items should be fixed and what should not. It will substantiate your price, or may convince a Seller to rethink the asking price. It will be full disclosure protection for the Seller and agent. It will allow the Seller to shop around for the best price to repair (not an inflated price that a Buyer would use to make sure all is covered. It streamlines the process.

Explaining Sellers inspection to the seller • • Explain that the future Buyer will bring a home inspector and will comb through their home and list defects or problems, which most likely will come with inflated estimates and cause renegotiation or anxiety. Explain that the report will be viewable on the internet attached to their listing with you. This will help sell the home more efficiently, increase interest and will stand out among other listings. Also, help them to realize their option to correct any problems, and have a re-inspection to remove those problems that were corrected, and revise the report on the internet. Above all, a Seller's Inspection is the ultimate gesture of full disclosure and will help protect them.

The Report samples you have look great, but some areas in the examples show significant damage to certain areas of the home. How can this be a good thing to show on the web with my listing? This is an excellent question. Quite frankly, it's not a good thing to show. But it exists nonetheless, why wait until you spend countless hours to bring a buyer, who in turn brings a home inspector, only then to discover the damage and face all the negatives of inflated estimates, losing the sale, and your time spent. Then you will have to start the process again with the legal and ethical duty to give full disclosure of the defects and consider repairing the items or adjusting your price.
