If you are planning to sell
your home, you may wish to have a pre-listing inspection done by
Hendley Building Consultants prior to placing your property on the
market.
A pre-listing inspection by Hendley Building Consultants shows
potential buyers that you are making a legitimate effort to build
trust in the property you are selling. It may help reduce
liability by adding professional documentation to your disclosure
statement.
In addition an inspection by Hendley Building Consultants will
give you a better understanding of conditions which may be
discovered by the buyer's inspector. You can prevent extended
negotiations if the repairs are made ahead of time. You will have
time to hire contractors or make the repairs yourself (if
qualified). Fewer contingencies in the sales
contract should make
the closing smoother.
In many cases once a buyer views a professional pre-listing
inspection report by Hendley Building Consultants, they will not
see a need to retain their own inspector.
