At the end of the home inspection, give your client this free Final Walk-Through Checklist to use on the day of closing. The instructions imply that your client should hire you again to accompany them on the final walk through. It is a WORD document so that you can edit it as you see fit.
This is a great tool. I haven’t done a final walkthrough inspection yet. I am not sure what to charge for this service. I give my clients a short worded narrative in my home inspection report on the last page. I saved this file and will see on how to market this.

was just putting one together how did you know?! Thank You! I have a tendency to make things more difficult than necessary, The way you have all the tools we need gathered and accessible is more than appreciated. Now it is just putting it all together to

I’ve not been around in a while but, as always, Nick & NACHI are always in support of our inspectors!
Aside from it’s intended use, this is also a wonderful CYA tool. Someday (if you’ve not already), you’ll get that, “Hey, you missed xxxxx in your inspection report!” after they’ve moved in. Asking them if they did their walk-thru immediately prior to closing invariably gets a “NO” reply.
“Gosh, that’s really important to do. That’s why we mentioned it several times in your report. That would have documented your concern as having developed` after the inspection and before you took possession. I’m not sure we have any way to help you at this point . . .”
