Why Get a Pre-Listing Inspection with WIN?
The majority of buyers will order a Full Home Inspection when purchasing a home, and while you have loved and maintained your home over the years, it could show signs of wear, tear, or maintenance. These concerns could come up during the home inspection and deter the buyer from following through with the sale or cause them to renegotiate the terms. A Pre-Listing Inspection is a proactive approach home sellers can take to identify and address key issues with the home before listing it on the market, leading to more satisfied buyers, fewer negotiations, and a faster sale.
Benefits of Pre-Listing Inspection
Avoid Prolonged Negotiations: Discovering key issues during a buyer’s inspection could prolong the selling process and lead to renegotiating the terms of the sale.
Build Trust with Buyers: Buyers are unaware of the condition of the home they are looking to purchase beyond what they can see visually; give them peace of mind knowing that you’ve had the home recently inspected by an unbiased professional.
Enhance Marketability: Differentiate your property on the market by being transparent about its condition or offering incentives to address key issues, which can attract interested buyers.
List with Confidence: List your home on the market fairly and with confidence knowing its current condition.

Inspector very detailed and explained all finding to my satisfaction. I will be contacting again to get an idea for referral contractors to repair individual findings and probably again sometime next year to pre-listing inspection on a second house.
