Pre-Sale Inspections


Most transactions that fail are because of surprises that come up in a buyer’s home inspection.

Your ‘win’ is important so I pay for a pre-home inspection to proactively address issues that will certainly come up anyway.

This is a general check. If there are specific items beyond the inspectors scope, such as electrical problems or furnace and A/C issues are found, an inspection by a licensed professional in those areas may be needed.

2.    Furnace and A/C (HVAC)
3.    Paint
4.    Roof
5.    Plumbing
