If you’re the one selling, it’s in your best interest to pass a home inspection with flying colors, since buyers are more likely to buy a home they know is in good condition.
Here’s how to prepare for your home inspection:
Repair any broken windows or screens
Clean or replace air filters in your cooling or heating system
Replace light bulbs in the house
Make it easy for inspection by tidying up storage areas, or an overly cluttered basement
Trim any low-hanging trees that could damage the roof
Present receipts for any repair or maintenance services you’ve used
Keep any kids or pets out of the house during the inspection
If you have any bugs or insects, schedule a professional exterminator to treat the house
