Inspections & Appraisals — What to Expect
Most buyers order a licensed inspection to verify the property’s condition. Timeframes for inspections are set in the Purchase Agreement and buyers may request specialists for roofs, HVAC, pest, or other concerns. If buyers use financing, the lender will typically order an appraisal to confirm the home’s value.
The Closing Agent
The closing attorney will review recorded history and confirm clear title. They ensure encumbrances are addressed so ownership can transfer cleanly at closing.

Contingencies, Loan Approval & Appraisal — Stay Prepared
Contingencies
Contingencies are conditions that must be met before a contract is binding—commonly inspections and financing. Buyers will complete steps such as securing financing and insurance, reviewing title and disclosure documents, and ordering specific inspections (roof, termite, well/septic, HVAC, mold, lead, etc.).
Loan Approval and Appraisal
We recommend accepting buyers with lender pre-approval, an approval letter, or a written loan commitment. The lender’s appraiser will confirm the sales price aligns with market value.
