Pre-Listing Inspection

​

  Selling a home is a big decision—make it smoother and more confident with a Pre-Listing Home Inspection from One Vision Inspections LLC. A pre-listing inspection helps identify issues before your home hits the market, giving you time to make repairs, price accurately, and avoid last-minute surprises that could delay your sale.

 

 Why a Pre-Listing Inspection Matters

  Most buyers hire their own inspector. By scheduling a pre-listing inspection first, you stay one step ahead. Knowing your home’s true condition lets you decide what to fix, what to disclose, and what to leave as-is. This transparency builds buyer trust, helps prevent renegotiations, and can lead to faster, smoother closings.

​

  A pre-listing inspection is especially helpful for older homes or those that have been updated over time. It gives sellers, agents, and buyers a shared understanding of the property’s condition right from the start.

 

What’s Included in a Pre-Listing Inspection

  Our certified inspectors follow the InterNACHI® Standards of Practice and Iowa’s inspection guidelines to deliver a detailed, non-invasive evaluation of all major systems, including:

• Roof coverings, flashing, gutters, and attic ventilation

• Exterior siding, windows, doors, and grading/drainage

• Foundation and structural components (visible areas)

• Plumbing systems, fixtures, and water heater

• Electrical panels, wiring, outlets, and safety devices

• HVAC equipment, ducts, and filters

• Interior walls, ceilings, floors, and stairs

• Built-in appliances, exhaust fans, and ventilation

• Visible signs of leaks, moisture, or safety hazards 

 

 Benefits of a Pre-Listing Inspection

• Avoid surprises: discover issues before buyers do.

• Increase buyer confidence: transparent homes sell faster and with fewer contingencies.

• Negotiate smarter: price your home accurately or offer repair credits confidently.

• Save time: reduce the chance of deals falling through after a buyer’s inspection.

  Whether you choose to make repairs or simply disclose the findings, having a professional report in hand gives you control and credibility throughout the selling process.

​

  You’ll receive a digital inspection report—typically within 24 hours—complete with photos and clear recommendations. The report is written to be easy for homeowners and buyers to understand, so it’s a powerful tool for listing preparation.
