Quick Tip for listing your home

[Jill L Ripley]

Something you may not have considered when listing  your home is doing a pre-inspection. Sure, it may cost you a few hundred dollars upfront, but it could save you thousands in the negotiating process. If a buyers inspector shows something on the report, chances are likely they will try to shave a fair chunk off the offer price. If you find an issue pre-listing, you can either have it repaired at a cost you are comfortable with or you can disclose it and make it known ahead of time in the listing and account for it in the listing price. This way you are in control.
