You've decided to place your home on the market. I'm sure that you have an emotional attachment to your home to go along with a lot of fond memories. I know that you'd like to obtain the highest price possible in the shortest amount of time while it's on the market. Let me explain to you how you can easily obtain your full asking price for your Nevada home.
The biggest mistake that most Sellers make is waiting for the Buyer's home inspector to assess the condition of their home. One of the main reasons that home purchase transactions fall apart is due to defects that materialize during the course of the Buyer's home inspection.
Allow Home Inspection Associates, LLC to assist you in obtaining the highest price in the shortest time by helping you turn your home into a "Buyer friendly" home. Virtually every home will benefit from my pre-listing inspection, as the information I will supply you (in advance) is helpful so you'll be in a favorable negotiating position when the offer comes in. It'll allow you to negotiate from a position of strength. Information is power in a successful property transaction.
What happens when your home is not prepared as a Buyer friendly home? The Buyers home inspection may contain issues that could be detrimental to the sale of your home. Ideally, both yourself and the Buyer usually work together to resolve any serious issues that may arise, but it's not always that easy. Convincing the Buyer(s) at this point in time that their concerns will be quickly corrected by the closing date may be difficult. Then convincing yourself to act quickly to correct any major issues is also very difficult. The buyer is now requesting a discount in your listing price. The sale is now in jeopardy and the deal may come to a screeching halt, which ultimately causes you to sell the house a second time to the next buyer that comes along. Now the home inspection process starts all over again.
How do you prevent this pitfall? Very Simply...
A PRE-LISTING INSPECTION
Before you decide to place your Nevada home on the market, take a more proactive approach and allow me to assist you in getting your home to stand out in the crowd amongst other homes in this very competitive market. I'll educate you on the present physical condition of your home and identify those problem areas and safety issues that need your attention now. I'll identify those crucial areas that typical home buyers tend to negotiate over and expensive items that usually make a Real Estate sale fall apart. Upgrading or fixing these issues will prevent any problems from occurring at the "eleventh hour" before the transaction closes.
My inspection is going to be your insurance policy for a smooth and speedy transaction and it will assist you in obtaining full list price for your home. It also shows good faith in carrying out the disclosure requirements. It communicates to the Buyer that you (the Seller) are willing to disclose all shortcomings, thereby paving the way for smoother, more agreeable negotiations.
HOME SELLER TIP - If you do not plan on repairing defects for the sale, consider contacting reputable contractors (in our area) to provide you with their repair estimates for any significant defects that are noted in your inspection report. Inexperienced home Buyers often have no idea how much it will cost to replace a roof or repair items on a home. Fear of the unknown is intimidating, so enclose all reasonable estimates in your Pre-Sale inspection report.
After preparing your home, you can now sit back, relax and enjoy reduced liability and less negotiating because fewer problems will be discovered by the Buyer's Inspector. A proactive disclosure, in many cases, is met with appreciation on the part of the prospective Buyer; and it's not likely to kill the deal. If you disclose certain defective items "as is" and stipulating that they are reflected in the purchase price, Buyers become aware of the condition of the house before an offer is even made. There will not be any surprises and the deal is far from falling apart. If the problem is unveiled later, however, prospective Buyers are likely to think that you tried to deceive them. Most of the time, you had no prior knowledge that the problem even existed. You should have all the information needed to help make your selling transaction less frustrating and to function more smoothly.
If you would consider Home Inspection Associates, LLC to assist you in turning your home into a Buyer friendly home, you won't regret it. With a Pre-Listing inspection, you'll see the smoothest transaction that anyone could ever experience. I guarantee that you'll see a big improvement in the transaction process over other home sales and all parties involved will experience a worry-free and smooth sale. At Home Inspection Associates, LLC, I believe that presentation is enormously important. Buying a home is one of life's most important purchases and how the house looks and feels is crucial...let me help you get it ready for sale.

HOW A TYPICAL PRE-LISTING INSPECTION WORKS
Simply contact me and I will arrange a date and time with you to conduct the home inspection. When the inspection is completed, I'll hand you your easy-to-read, easy to understand report explaining all of my findings. At that point you can then decide what improvements (if any) may be necessary in order to avoid problems that may arise on the upcoming Buyer's home inspection. If you don't want to make improvements to your home, then my findings can simply be added into the seller's disclosure. Disclosing those issues "as is" will inform the Buyers (up-front) what their getting into. Your objective is to minimize unpleasant surprises now, so you don't face difficulties later.
Your pre-inspection report is your negotiating tool that gives validity to your asking price. It also places confidence in the minds of prospective Buyers', who want to know that they're not jumping into uncertain territory. If your plans include an Open House, my pre-inspection report can be left on the kitchen or dining room table for any potential buyer to review before making an offer or ordering their own home inspection. Since I provide you an electronic version of the report you can even print multiple copies for distribution. I recommend that you place any copies of receipts for maintenance and repairs that were completed on the house right next to my report. This prevents a re-negotiation of the asking price based on some unknown defect(s).
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions regarding a Pre-Listing home inspection. Let's work together and get that "SOLD" sign posted in front of your home in no time.
