Identifying and correcting problem areas before the buyer's inspector finds them has some advantages. The repairs can be made at the seller's discretion and time frame instead of last-minute repairs scrutinized by the buyer. A pre-sale home inspection is part of the marketing costs of selling a home. The next best thing is staging the house for a home inspection. This is when the seller addresses common problem areas that an inspector will surely discover. Make these discoveries yourself and correct the issues proactively. SPECIAL NOTE: If you are selling a stucco home, you should have the stucco pre-inspected and have repairs, if any, completed before putting your home on the market. The buyer may elect to have a separate inspection of the condition of the stucco.
