Pre-listing inspections are becoming one of our most requested inspections! Performing an inspection before a home is listed is one of the smartest investments a home seller can make.

Benefits for Home Sellers

• Home may sell faster.
• No more buyers walking away because they think there is a problem with the house.
• No renegotiations based on the inspector's findings.
• No confusion where an inspector has raised an issue that is not a big problem.
• No more parade of inspectors through your home before a multiple-offer situation.
• You resolve any differences of opinion before the house goes on the market.
• You fix any problems you like or recognize the problem and reflect it in the purchase price - take it off the table as a negotiating tool against you.
• Thirty copies of a one page executive summary report are provided for distribution at open houses.

Benefits for Home Buyers

• Make an offer with confidence.
• A detailed report will put things into perspective prior to an offer being made.
• Eliminates the need to put an inspection clause in the offer.

Steps to a pre-listing inspection.

• You decide that you would like to sell your home.
• One of our inspectors performs a home inspection and provides you with our comprehensive Horizon inspection report where all of our findings are neatly laid out.
• We take digital photographs of the home and then assemble a full-colour, one page summary of the inspection highlights complete with cost estimates and time frames.
• The ‘inspection package’ is displayed for potential buyers to view. You may also wish to print a copy of the Horizon inspection report or you might offer to have the report emailed to the prospect.

What are people saying?

"I love Pre-listing Inspections by Boulevard Property Inspection! The great thing is, they take away the worry of a conditional offer. Boulevard prepares 50 colourful Summary Reports so everything is up front...this makes for less conditions and a quicker sale. Buyers have the opportunity to do a full walk-through with the inspector for a minimal price. A win/win situation for all!! Thanks Boulevard! "

"We had 3 showings and potentially 2 offers. On the strength of the inspection report, the purchaser felt confident about submitting an unconditional offer. This property was sold in just over 24 hours on the market ! "

"A pre-listing inspection is an excellent marketing tool that adds credibility and professionalism to our industry. As a result of these inspections my Sellers have far greater confidence in the selling process knowing, in advance both the deficiencies and benefits of their home.”
- Peter Howell – Royal LePage Real Estate Services

"Pre-listing Inspections - Wow! What a great idea!  The potential buyers all seemed to find the pre-inspection report useful and it made them think that the vendors had nothing to hide.  We had two offers and the pre-inspection allowed both offers to remove their condition on inspection and proceed with a firm offer.  Good for the buyers as well as the sellers."
