Last week, I spoke with a few local attorneys, we were discussing the current High Country real estate market. They said the summer was relatively slow, but the last two weeks, things have really picked up. This traditionally means we should continue to see a large number of closings in the next few weeks.
Interestingly, the conversation moved to discuss banks and closing information. Attorneys are advising Sellers to consider having inspections before listing their homes. Why, you may ask? Because many closing are being postponed (a day or two before closing) because of something the underwriter did not like in the inspection. The only way to prevent this, is to have your home inspected and make necessary repairs.
This is great news; we have encouraged clients to do this for years. Why? It's like buying a used car; you always want to get a CarFax report. A pre-inspection is the same thing; it gives the buyer confidence in the home.
