Pre-listing walkthrough · what a buyer's inspector will find, found first
Fix before market
Leaking trap under the kitchen sink. An afternoon's plumbing visit; removes a guaranteed inspection line. 📷 2
GFCI protection at both baths. Small electrical job, large first-impression return. 📷 2
Touch-up paint, hallway scuffs. 📷 1
Basement-stair handrail + peeling garage-door paint. FHA/VA items an appraiser is required to flag — cheap now, a closing delay later. 📷 3
What the appraiser will see
Measured 1,978 sq ft against the assessor's 2,100. Scanned room by room to the standards appraisers use — set the price and the comps from the real number, not the record's.
Leave — and price honestly
The dated-but-clean kitchen. A remodel won't return its cost here; say "original, well kept" in the listing and let the price carry it.
Have ready for buyers
Roof invoice (2021) and water heater receipt. Answers the two questions every buyer's agent asks.
