In today’s soft real estate marketplace, more and more savvy agents are promoting the idea for sellers to conduct presale inspections before they put their home on the market. Some sellers do pre-inspections to make sure that they completely disclose defects that may affect the value of the property. Others inspect so defects that might detract a buyer can be repaired before the property goes on the market.

Presale inspection reports can help by making any bad news about the property known to a prospective buyer before he makes an offer. Precious marketing time can be lost if you take your home off the market for a buyer who then backs out after he sees a home inspection report. n addition to obtaining presale inspections, consider contacting reputable contractors to provide repair estimates for significant defects that are noted in your inspection.

Inexperienced Boca Raton home buyers often have no idea how much it will cost to replace a roof or remove asbestos from the heating system. Fear of the unknown is intimidating. A reasonable repair estimate may assuage the buyer’s concern. A buyer whose experience with home maintenance is limited is more likely to estimate on the high side to be safe. Often actual repair costs are less than a buyer might imagine. Asbestos abatement is a good example.
