How to List and Sell More Homes

Pre - Listing Inspection - Sell more Homes

How to List More Homes

Here at HomeFront Inspection we have developed a program that actully will help you list abd sell more homes. The more homes you list, the more you will sell, the more you sell the more $$$$$ you earn.

When your seller realizes that YOU have THERE best interest in mind and that you have something to offer that other realtors don't, you will get them to list their home with you every time.. What do you offer your customer that is so unique? How about a Certified Pre - listing Home Inspection? It is a proven fact that seller that have their home inspected prior to listing will sell there home in less time and with less emotional stress than the traditional way.

This is how it works. You offer to pay for the sellers pre - listing home inspection. This is where they find out that you have their best interest in mind and that you offer something that other realtors didn't.

EVER LOSE A SALE TO AN INSPECTION?

CONSIDER THIS SOLUTION:

HAVE THE SELLER'S GET AN INSPECTION

Why postpone the inevitable?

Is this scenario familiar?

You show the buyer several homes until they put a contract on a house. The buyer decide to have the home inspected. The inspection reveals some issues. The contract is renegotiated and then if an agreement can't be met, the process starts all over again.

The faster way to get from A to Z

With a sellers inspection most of this can be avoided. In most cases the sale is streamlined all the way to the closing table. You will save time and money, and allow you to sell more homes.

BUYERS INSPECTION VS SELLERS INSPECTION

Defects are detected near the end of the sale after valuable time is invested	Defects are detected early.
Contract enters renegotiations - More delays	Full disclosure becomes a selling point. Report can be posted on the web linked to MLS #.
	Seller can correct problems or adjust price accordingly
Buyer reveals high price to reduce the asking price, then hires the lowest bidder	Be an informed seller. Seller has time to shop for best prices for repairs - Saving money.
If agreement can't be made the seller walks and the process repeats	Can be re-inspected after repairs are made or show receipt of repairs. New report clearing repairs
	Decreased the time the house is on the market. This is a good reason for sellers to list with you.

It just makes sense.

The Realtor lists the home, We do the inspection, The seller is happy because the house sold, The Realtor lists more homes, etc.

Computerized Reports

We are fully computerized with state of the art reporting. We print out the report at the end of the inspection. We can also email and post the report on this web site. The report also gives a summary of the problems for easy reference. Each report give a narrative detail on the defect and pictures may accompany the defect as we see necessary. See Sample Report.

Gentle Disclosure, not an alarmist

I have the ability to reveil defects to the client that gives them the proper information without scaring the daylights out of them. I have had realtors thank me for taking care of their clients in this area. I still give the client the needed information needed to make an informed decision. But also direct them to the proper professionals that can shed more light on the matter. We disclose the problem areas gently. We make no recommendations whether our client to buy or not to buy. That decision is up the buyer after they review the data.

What Really Matters

Buying a home? The process can be stressful. A home inspection is supposed to give you peace of mind, but often has the opposite effect. You will be asked to absorb a lot of information in a short time. This often includes a written report, checklist, photographs, environmental reports, and what the inspector himself says during the inspection. All this combined with the seller's disclosure and what you notice yourself makes the experience even more overwhelming. What should you do?

Relax. Most of your inspection will be maintenance recommendations, life expectancies and minor imperfections. These are nice to know about. However, the issues that really matter will fall into four categories:

1. Major defects. An example of this would be a structural failure.

2. Things that lead to major defects. A small roof-flashing leak, for example.

3. Things that may hinder your ability to finance, legally occupy, or insure the home.

4. Safety hazards, such as an exposed, live buss bar at the electric panel.

Anything in these categories should be addressed. Often a serious problem can be corrected inexpensively to protect both life and property (especially in categories 2 and 4).

Most sellers are honest and are often surprised to learn of defects uncovered during an inspection. Realize that sellers are under no obligation to repair everything mentioned in the report. No home is perfect. Keep things in perspective. Don't kill your deal over things that don't matter. It is inappropriate to demand that a seller address deferred maintenance, conditions already listed on the seller's disclosure, or nit-picky items.
