Pre-Listing or Seller Inspection • The process is the same as the buyer’s inspection • From a recent survey we found that the average cost to the seller resulting from a buyer’s inspection is $978 • We have performed close to 200 pre-listing inspections to date • Our goal of course, is to eliminate the inspection by the buyer which will save the seller valuable time and possibly considerable expense • Of the pre-listing inspections we have done on homes that have sold, 80% of the buyers have elected not to do an inspection • Of the 20% that did do inspections, nothing new was found
How to use the pre-listing inspection • Make notes on the report showing your comments on the findings • Repaired • Will repair before closing • As is (excluded) • Negotiable • Make the report available to prospective buyers so they can review the findings
How to use the pre-listing inspection(cont) • If an offer is made subject to a buyer’s inspection, accept the offer but exclude everything that was on the Star Home Inspection report • Since they knew what you are willing to do or not do because they saw the report up front, they should have made their offer accordingly. • With this process, 80% of the buyer’s have elected to forego an inspection of their own • The other 20% have not found anything new
Pre-listing Inspection Unique Guarantee If you follow our guidelines and requirements we guarantee the buyer’s inspector will not find anything new that the you will be required to repair. If that happens Star Home Inspections will pay 50% of the your cost of repairs up to $1000. Both you and Star Home Inspection Services will have a cost of $500 each.
