Inspections & Appraisals
Most buyers will have the property examined by a licensed property inspector.
The Buyer's Property Inspection
Most buyers order a licensed inspection to confirm property condition. Some will bring specialists for specific systems (roof, HVAC, plumbing). If the buyer uses financing, the lender will typically require an independent appraisal to verify the property value.
The Closing Agent
A title company or attorney will act as the closing agent to confirm clear title and ensure any encumbrances (mortgages, liens, leases) are addressed prior to transfer.

What else you should know...
Contingencies
Contingencies—like inspections or financing—must be satisfied before a contract becomes final. Buyers will secure financing, review title and disclosure documents, and inspect the property (roof, pest, septic, pool, mold, lead-based paint, HVAC, etc.). Responding professionally and fairly to renegotiation requests is where an experienced agent adds value.
Loan Approval and Appraisal
We recommend prioritizing buyers with lender pre-approval or written loan commitment. Expect an appraiser from the lender to confirm the sales price aligns with market value.

Tips For Selling
Give Your House a Deep Clean
First impressions matter. Before listing, deep clean bathrooms, kitchens, floors, and rugs. Consider professional cleaners to ensure top presentation.
Declutter The Home
A clutter-free space lets buyers focus on the home itself. Clear counters and organize storage so visitors can easily picture their belongings in the space.
Call a Handyman
A well-maintained property reassures buyers and can reduce renegotiations
