n/a30 Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 I was set up to do a pre-offer inspection for a buyer until the seller backed out without a firm offer in hand. The agent's want to have more assurance that the buyer is really interested in the property. A seller's (also "pre-offer") based inspection is a whole other rare animal. Some of the smarter sellers use them and others just use the buyer's inspection report to fix items if the propery doesn't close at first contract offer.
