Everyone wins with a Listing Inspection

Put More Money In Your Pocket

”Regardless of the marketplace, it’s to a seller’s advantage to perform a professional pre-sale or listing inspection.

A listing inspection will put more money in your pocket, facilitate a smoother transaction put
potential buyers at ease, reduce negotiating points, and bypass annoying delays.

Supplemental disclosure provided by a seller’s listing inspection encourages trust between the
buyer and the seller, and sets a positive tone for escrow.

In today’s market, if there’s been a listing inspection, repairs made, accurate pricing, and the
house staged to show… the odds are the house will sell quicker. Get the jump on your
competition with a listing inspection today.” - Pacific Coast Inspections

Remember...
• Listing inspections and pre-sale repairs can speed home sales by as much as 30%.
• Fact: It’s cheaper to fix a deficiency before the sale, than to negotiate the price down.

It’s been suggested that for every $1 of identified repairs, the buyer would be looking for double that in price reduction. For example, paying as much as $5,000 to repair a leaky roof before putting a house on the market is cheaper than having to lower the selling price of your home by $10,000.

Spending $300-$600 for an inspection is worth every cent and can keep thousands in your pocket.

Hello Pacific Coast Inspections,

Glenn was fantastic -knowledgeable, patient, and willing to answer all my questions. I feel so much better about buying my first place after talking with him and reviewing his home inspection report. Every issue was described in detail, with pictures, specified what needed to be done and gave an indication of severity of the issue (basically, what I need to deal with first). I have an electrician coming out before contingencies are released so I know what it's going to cost because of Glenn's suggestion. I will not hesitate to recommend your company to my friends and family. Thank you for everything!

Ann W.
