We get this one all the time! Here’s a quick guide for sellers on when to order a pre-listing inspection.

And if you’re looking to buy this summer, we always recommend using the information in a pre-listing report as a baseline. Order your own inspection (whether pre- or post-closing) to receive the most up-to-date information on a home.

Not sure what “deferred maintenance” means? You’re not alone.

“Deferred maintenance” is a term your inspector might use to refer to any repairs or upkeep that should have been completed earlier, but was delayed or put off. The terms does NOT imply that an item or system is completely defective. In fact, the fix is often relatively simple! The most important thing to remember is that continuing to leave maintenance items unaddressed can lead to additional issues that could cost you more down the road.

Common examples of deferred maintenance include:

📋Damaged caulking around a tub (this $20 DIY project is beginner-friendly)
📋Clogged gutters (remove the debris, and you’re good to go)
📋Peeling exterior paint (call your local professional to schedule a consultation)

What “inspector jargon” should we decode next?
