What Is a Pre Listing Inspection?
A pre listing inspection is a full home inspection done before your home goes on the market.
It covers the same systems a buyer's inspector will look at, so you know where your home stands before a buyer does. Instead of learning about a roof leak or a wiring problem in the middle of your contract, you learn about it while you still control the timeline.
How It Helps You Sell
Fewer Surprises
Problems found during the buyer's inspection can reopen price talks or end a deal. Knowing first puts you ahead of it.
Fix It Your Way
Choose your own contractors and timeline instead of rushing repairs during the contract period.
Price With Confidence
Set your price knowing the real condition of the home.
Share the Report
Giving buyers and their agents the report up front builds trust. Whether to share it is your call.

Questions We Get Asked
Do I have to share the report with buyers?
That is your decision. Talk with your agent about what you need to disclose and whether sharing the report helps your sale.
Will buyers still get their own inspection?
Most will. A pre listing inspection tells you what they are likely to see, so nothing catches you off guard.
When should I schedule it?
Before you list, with enough time to make any repairs you choose.
How much does a pre listing inspection cost?
It depends on the home. Request a quote and we will call you right away.
