Question 2

What is the difference between a pre-purchase and a pre-sale inspection?

A pre-purchase inspection is done before you buy, to uncover defects before closing. A pre-sale (pre-listing) inspection is done by the seller before listing, to identify issues in advance, set the asking price with confidence, and avoid last-minute negotiations.
