Questions
Pre-Listing / Seller's Inspection FAQs
Do I have to disclose what the inspection finds?
In California, sellers must disclose known material defects. A pre-listing inspection makes that disclosure clean and complete — which is exactly what reduces post-close liability.
Will buyers still order their own inspection?
Usually yes. The advantage is that there are no surprises, so the second report confirms what you already disclosed instead of reopening the price.
