Should we get a home inspection?

An important part of the process is the home inspection.

Before a serious buyer makes an offer on your home, he may want to have a professional home inspector check your house from top to bottom. The option of hiring a professional home inspector is open to you, the seller, as well.

An inspection in advance of putting your home on the market is a good idea. It will allow you ample time to fix the things that you may not have known about, ultimately allowing you to ask for and receive a better price for your home.

Providing a pre-inspection may also reassure prospective buyers that no major surprises are in store. Better you find them and take care of them before an inspector hired by a potential buyer discovers them!

If you need a referral to a quality inspector, contact Bill Brandsma Real Estate, specializing in Calgary and the surrounding area. Call 403-606-1765.
