Inspections and Appraisals when Selling in Killeen

Inspections & Appraisals

Most buyers order a licensed home inspection, often with specialists for roof, plumbing or HVAC as needed. If the buyer is financing the purchase, the lender will typically require an independent appraisal to confirm the property value supports the loan amount..

The closing agent

A title company or attorney acting as escrow will verify and insure clear title. They review recorded history and certify the title is free of encumbrances by closing so ownership can transfer.

What else you should know...

Contingencies

Contingencies are conditions that must be satisfied before a contract is binding (examples include inspection and financing contingencies). Buyers will complete steps such as:

Securing financing and insurance
Reviewing preliminary title reports and disclosure documents
Inspecting the property with specialists (roof, termite/pest, chimney/fireplace, boundary survey, well, septic, pool/spa, arborist, mold, lead-based paint, HVAC, etc.)

Responding to renegotiation

Responding objectively and strategically to renegotiation requests is where experienced listing agents add measurable value while protecting your best interests.

Loan approval and appraisal

We recommend accepting buyers with lender pre-approval or a written loan commitment. Expect the lender’s appraiser to confirm that the agreed sales price aligns with market value.
