With housing prices and interest rates on the higher end, it’s more important than ever for realtors to partner with a responsive and reputable home inspector.
How Partnering With Home Inspectors Supports Real Estate Pros
In a market like this, first-time homebuyers and those on a tight budget can wind up purchasing “fixer-uppers” that are far more fixer than upper. Similarly, real estate investors hoping to buy a vacation rental home can wind up in a house that costs far more than expected in repair, replacement, and rehabilitation expenses.
Super Inspection Pros has created strong, long-term partnerships with some of Central Florida’s top realtors, and they provide passionate feedback about the value of that relationship.
Here are some of the ways our real estate partners and homebuyers experience the benefits of partnership, as stated in recent Google reviews.
1. You Know You Can Count on Them
As a realtor, you know how essential it is to have industry professionals you can count on. This is how it feels for your clients when it comes to you and the professionals you refer them to during the house hunting and purchase process.
One of our repeat clients says:
“…[SIP] has always been great to work with. Very professional and gives great advice. I am just starting out in rental investments, and [they] will be my go-to every time; thanks again!”
When you use a responsive and reputable inspector, you get:
- Quick appointments and turnarounds on inspection reports (more on that below).
- Accurate, detailed inspection reports that can be sent immediately to lenders and/or insurance carriers.
- A home inspection professional who is happy to answer all of your questions, explain our findings, and provide insight on where to go from there.
2. Fast Appointment and Inspection Report Turnarounds
We understand that you need to know all you can about a home’s structural and site status as soon as possible to improve negotiations and final sales price/credit adjustments.
Realtors should never have to wait more than three business days to schedule a home inspection and should get the final report within 24 hours of the inspection.
“We’ve used Super Inspection Pros for both a Wind Mitigation Inspection and a Four Point Inspection. Their website makes scheduling very straightforward; we always got the same-day responses, and the turnaround time was very quick. The Inspector was professional, courteous, and easy to talk with. “
These are the types of comments you want to read in online reviews when looking for your future home inspection partner.
3. Accurate Inspection Findings
When you refer clients to any subcontractor or vendor, your reputation is on the line. Trusting a home inspector to provide accurate findings is foundational because any errors they make reflect back on you.
Detailed inspection reports provide peace of mind for everyone involved because they have precise information about every touch-point included in the inspection. The report also serves as a repair/replacement “to-do” list that prospective homeowners can use to address issues in order of importance once they move in.
One of our most recent reviewers writes that SIP is “…thorough and hyper-focused taking into account every detail from top to bottom and all around and inside out. Even taking the time to sit with us after and go over everything, not just telling us he would submit the report the next day.”
4. They Let You Attend the Inspection & Explain Results
If a home inspector doesn’t want you around, be wary. This may be because they’re trying to do the least amount of work to get the job done. A reputable home inspector who values relationships with local real estate professionals knows that a good realtor wants to learn all they can about critical home systems and their red flags.
This review from a real estate partner sums up what to prioritize when looking for a local home inspector you can recommend to clients:
“As a Realtor, I am always looking for the most streamlined ways to do business with the most qualified and competent vendors. Super Inspection Pros offer great products such as their pre-listing inspection. I recently used this on my personal home and it allowed me more negotiating power. I am frequently recommending it to sellers now as it is paid at closing and helps streamline transactions.”
