THE BENEFITS OF A PROFESSIONAL PROPERTY INSPECTION
Many property practitioners are reluctant to advise their clients to obtain a professional property inspection report, prior to entering into a property transaction.
This is understandable as estate agents feel that any
negative opinion could jeopardize their chances of affecting a successful transaction between buyer and seller. However, this is not necessarily the case.
A professional property inspection, performed by a certified
professional property inspector, such as Rietpan Construction offers benefits to all concerned parties, be they Property Practitioners, buyers, or sellers of property.
BENEFITS FOR PROPERTY PRACTITIONERS:
- Peace of mind knowing that the property was professionally inspected and the report issued by an InterNACHI Certified professional property inspector.
- Peace of mind, knowing that there are no nasty surprises that could surface after the transfer date, eliminating costly litigation;
- Protection against liability claims after transfer due to non-disclosure of patent defects prior to transfer;
- An excellent marketing tool to show buyers when a property is in a generally good condition, without major issues that could potentially be very costly;
- An inspection report can be used as a bargaining tool to convince sellers that they are asking too much for their properties, particularly when a property is hard to sell due to observed defects, and the seller is not willing to negotiate on his asking price;
- Likewise, a positive inspection report can be used to justify the relatively high asking price of a seller, making it easier to sell.
BENEFITS FOR SELLERS:
- Peace of mind knowing that the property was professionally inspected and the report issued by an InterNACHI Certified professional property inspector.
- Minor defects that could be perceived negatively by buyers can be attended to by the seller and rectified at low cost rather than accepting drastically lowered offers from buyers;
- An updated, more favorable, inspection report can be issued upon showing evidence of repairs to the property inspector;
- A favorable inspection report with no serious patent defects found and listed is a very powerful tool to justify a higher asking price and not accept unreasonably lower offers from buyers;
- Peace of mind knowing that nobody can claim that defects were hidden by the seller.
BENEFITS FOR BUYERS:
- Peace of mind knowing that the investment was an informed decision based on a comprehensive report showing the condition of the property. Its structure, systems, and components were prior to concluding the transaction
- Knowledge of issues that may need attention prior to moving into the newly purchased property, such as upgrading of the security system;
- A powerful bargaining tool to negotiate a fair and reasonable price with the seller;
- Peace of mind knowing that the property was professionally inspected and the report issued by an InterNACHI Certified professional property inspector. https://www.nachi.org/
