NJ Home inspectors typically can provide a Pre-sales home inspection or a "sellers inspection".

The biggest positive aspect of having a presales home inspection is that it has the potential to alleviate large surprises for the seller. It is difficult to understand fully the condition of the house that you are selling. Having a thorough and complete presales home inspection will allow you to understand fully the condition of the home you’re selling and get ahead of any problems that exist before you put the house on the market.The only difference between a presale i...
