Can you believe we will be in 2020 next month? January is a month where many people make big plans for the year ahead. Are you planning a big change? Perhaps you’ve decided to move to a new house and will be putting your current home on the market. If you are, then here are a few suggestions for how to make a success of selling your home:
Preparing to put your home up for sale usually involves a bit of work. For example, you will want to do all you can to make the home and yard appealing to a prospective buyer, this might mean cleaning, repairing and decorating. There is another very important step you can take to prepare the home to sell and that’s having a pre-listing inspection performed. Why is this a good idea?
As you are probably aware, when you have a potential buyer for your home they will have a home inspection performed on it to make sure they are not purchasing a property that has major issues. It would not feel good for you to find out those issues at the same time as the potential buyer. This is where the pre-listing inspection comes in. The pre-listing inspection is done before you put your home on the market and lets you know if there is anything wrong with your home before anyone else does. Another advantage of a pre-listing inspection is that this will appeal to a potential buyer and help you sell your home that much quicker, for the price you want.
