How confident are you that your house could pass an inspection if you put it up for sale today?

Kids and houses, two things that don't come with instruction manuals but really, really should. A home can be the biggest purchase of your lifetime, but maintaining it can be a mystery, and preparing it for sale can be even more so. That's got to be left to a professional, right? A professional will be very happy to take your money. I'm going to show you how to keep most of it in your pocket. Whether you buy this book at the moment of purchase to maintain your home, or as you get it ready to put it up for sale, learn how to spot, locate, or fix things before someone like me comes in and finds it, writes it on a report, and delays or crashes your sale.

I have been an award-winning, certified home inspector for almost 20 years, and just when I think I've seen everything in a home, I find something new and unbelievable. In fact, maybe that's my next book. You may be thinking I'm putting myself out of business educating people like this, creating these forms and checklists and helping them streamline MY job, but I think this is essential. It's hard to put your house up for sale, and you want to get as much money as you can from the transaction. You need to pay the professionals who help you, the taxes, and maybe you need a new roof. If you know those things before someone like me comes in and tells you they need to be remediated in a week or so, or you lose your sale, you are in a much better financial position to fix your issues on your schedule and negotiate your own prices... without pressure or panic. I've been a buyer, a seller, and an inspector. I wish I had this book, so I wrote this book. This is my first book, but not my last. Please check back again soon. Happy Finding!
