Larry Treadway of Advance Inspections, LLC discusses the benefits of seller-paid home inspections. According to the document, 95% of buyers currently opt to have inspections done, while only 5% of owners do. The greatest benefit is for sellers, as a pre-listing inspection can prevent costly negotiations and delays from issues found by buyer inspections. Seller inspections provide full disclosure and reveal the true condition of the property. They allow homes to sell faster, for more money, and with less hassle - creating a win-win-win-win for all parties.
