FACT: Nearly 8 out of every 10 home buyers nationwide obtain a home inspection prior to closing, per ASHI (American Society of Home Inspectors) and NAR (National Association of Realtors) survey. You can protect yourself, make your home look its best in a competitive market, and clear many of the roadblocks to a sale by having your home inspected before you place it on the market. Walking through a pre-inspected home gives prospective buyers more confidence in the condition of the property and leads to a greater willingingness to trust you, the seller.
