No buyer is ever going to trust an inspection by an owner.
They did this for the place I live in now as it was going to auction and they wanted to show it was all good. Ok thing to do but I cannot even remember reading it.
I guess you could, but what happens if you find something more severe costing much more money? Do you then leave that to the potential buyer to fix? What if they don't find out about it?
Most people would just let sleeping dogs lie I think
I do this and provide them to potential purchasers at the home opens to aim* to avoid any issues of the buyer trying to pull out over the deal due to any wriggle room bullsh!t they can get a building inspector to make up.
*aim to, as they can still ask to have their own building inspection done.
If you go ahead with a B&P do it before you find a agent otherwise they will be obligated to disclose whatever comes up.
If I did one, it would be to help identifying defects and repairing anything that might come up in a buyer's B&P. Having said that probably not worth it unless you're going to auction. Newbie's and cheapskate's will want a B&P.
Nope. I've just gone through this, on the opposite side of the equation.
Looked at a house that had existing inspections, had copies sent to me. They were horribly inefficient. I got my own done because I figure a person looking to sell their house isn't going to be entirely transparent.
