Me thinks pre-listing inspections are just about to take off.

There is much more liability in a pre-listing inspection than a pre-sale inspection. You should charge accordingly, and also be prepared to basically write everything down no matter how insignificant you feel it is.


If you were to miss something that the buyers inspector picks up, you can be sure you will be getting a call from the seller...and a bill.

More liability=More $$.
I have yet to do one, and I'm not sure I really want to after thinking about it.

Yes you are correct, call your insurance company and make sure you are covered, and you must be on top of your game when you do one. when I do one I don’t have the client with me I come back at the end and give them my report and show them the items, and yes I can charge more for a pre-sale.
