THOUGHTS ON REAL ESTATE Monday, November 7, 2011 To pre or not to pre . . . inspect that is.
A little while back I posted a question on a professional blogging site. The site caters to realtors, mortgage brokers, home inspectors, home stagers etc. My question was this - "What are your thoughts on a prelisting home inspection?"
The range of responses was astounding and some of them unexpected. My thought today is to put the question out there in a more public domain to see what people think before I post the other responses in the next few days.
So, if you are a seller do you see a benefit to having a prelisting home inspection? If you are a buyer do you see a benefit to the seller having a prelisting home inspection? These are both if yes - why / if no - why questions and actually require a bit of thought.
I have another question to this as well - if you are the buyer and the seller has already had a home inspection, would that be satisfactory or should you have your own done as well?
