Looking to get a little more for your real estate listing? Sure, you can paint that front door red and add a few flower beds, but curb appeal can only get you so far. One secret to asking more for your home, according to the professionals at Pillar to Post Home Inspectors, is having a pre-listing inspection. By understanding exactly what the issues are in your property, you can either fix them or list at an accurate price, avoiding the hassle of negotiation when the buyer does his or her own inspection to reveal your furnace needs work or your windows need replacing. The following infograph breaks down exactly how a pre-listing inspection can help you list your home for more.
I tell my sellers getting pre inspections really lets the buyer know up front, what condition the home they are interested in.
This gives the buyer piece of mind knowing they can deal with currect issues the home has or not.
Very helpful.
