Tips for a Cleaner Inspection
Tips for Buyers
-
Allow the inspector some “alone” time at the beginning of the inspection. This is a crucial time for the inspector to view the major components of the house and will require time in the roof and attic spaces.
-
Provide any potential concerns to the inspector prior to the inspection to ensure they are addressed in adequate detail.
-
Relax and follow the steps outlined in the report if repair or further evaluation is recommended. Remember, your inspector and realtor have seen this all before.
Tips for Sellers
-
Remove clutter to ensure easy access to key areas, such as the electrical panel (cover will be removed) and the attic.
-
Leave the house in the capable hands of the inspector if at all possible. This time is set aside for the benefit of the buyer.
-
Remove pets if possible.
-
Ensure working bulbs are installed in all light fixtures.
-
Ensure all smoke detectors are functional with green lights illuminated.
-
Leave service and repair documents, pest treatment documents, etc. out for the inspector to view. This can save unnecessary calls for service.
-
Don’t hesitate to contact the inspector for questions related to any repairs requested by the buyer. We’re here to help.
