FAQs:

        • Disclosure Requirement: When selling a home, sellers must disclose any known potential problems. Sharing the pre-listing inspection report provides additional proof of honesty about the home’s condition.
        • Timing for Pre-Listing Inspection: An inspection may not reveal much if you’re the sole owner of a relatively new home. However, for older homes, waiving the inspection may not be wise. Consult your real estate agent to decide.
