Pre-Listing Home Inspections for Sellers in North Memphis, Tennessee

Proudly Providing Inspection Services for Bartlett, Arlington, Millington, Covington, Rossville, and Surrounding Areas

At NPI, we know that selling your home can feel overwhelming. When you don’t know the full condition of your home, a buyer’s inspection ordered during the closing process can lead to delays, price negotiations, re-negotiations, and last-minute contractor repair estimates. With a pre-listing inspection from NPI, you can enter negotiations prepared and proactive. Fewer surprises and last-minute repairs help you sell faster for a higher price.

What are the Benefits of a Pre-Listing Inspection?

  • Sell Faster For More Money: A home that has been pre-inspected is more attractive to buyers. With a report that documents the current condition of the home, buyers are more likely to feel confident in making an offer quickly. A pre-listing inspection also allows you to set a competitive asking price based on the actual condition of your home, reducing the likelihood of last-minute price reductions or extended negotiations.
  • Increase Buyer’s Confidence: A pre-listing inspection provides transparency, showing buyers that you’ve been a proactive homeowner and kept the property in good condition. When buyers feel confident that there are no hidden surprises, they are more likely to make strong offers.
  • Reduce Chance of Negotiations During Closing: One of the most stressful parts of selling a home is often the negotiations that occur following a buyer’s inspection. If hidden issues are discovered during the buyer's inspection, it can lead to last-minute demands for repairs or price reductions that could potentially derail the sale. By conducting a pre-listing inspection, you can address any problems before listing the home, minimizing the chance of negotiations and helping to ensure a smoother closing process.

What's Included in an NPI Home Inspection?

Roof & Attic

NPI inspectors walk your roof to identify issues like warped shingles or worn flashings, and attics are checked for signs of water intrusion and wildlife.

Plumbing

All plumbing fixtures are evaluated for proper draining and signs of leaks. Your inspector also checks the hot/cold water supplies. 

Electrical

Your inspector will carefully evaluate the home’s electrical system, including the service entrance and panel. Outlets will also be tested.

HVAC

The full HVAC system will be evaluated, including the furnace, air conditioning unit, and ductwork as access allows.

Built-In Appliances

The functionality of built-in appliances such as ovens, fridges, and dishwashers will be documented in your report

Structure

All visible areas of your foundation, flooring, framing, and attic are thoroughly examined for safety, integrity, and quality of workmanship.

Walls & Ceilings

Your NPI inspector identifies the condition of the home’s walls and ceilings, looking for signs of water intrusion, cracks, or other potential issues.

Windows & Doors

Doors are checked for sticking, which could indicate a foundation issue. Windows are assessed to ensure they’re property sealed to outside elements.

Crawl Space

If applicable, crawl spaces are checked for signs of mold growth, wood rot, wildlife, and damaged structural components.

Exterior

The exterior inspection includes evaluation of the roof, gutters, windows, and siding.

Lots & Grounds

We assess the lot and grounds, including the driveway, sidewalks, and grading. Issues that could lead to water intrusion are identified.

Decks & Patios

If your home includes a deck or patio, your inspector will check its integrity and for cracks or signs of wood damage.

Our Client Testimonials

Here’s what our inspection clients have to say about their experience with NPI.

Mackenzie B.
Mike was a fantastic inspector, very thorough. The last person we used missed or wrote off many things that wound up costing us tens of thousands in repairs. We feel much more confident this time around and would absolutely hire this company again and recommend them to others as well.
Ian G.
I've used his services more than once and it was a great experience every time. He was fast and knowledgeable, but very thorough. He provided detailed reports quickly and explained any unique issues. Great job.
Eddricka S.
I loved having Mike as my property inspector. He was informative, got the report done in a timely manner, and has a great personality. He answers any questions you have and is patient. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Cindy W.
Fast service with a quality inspection. My inspector, Mike, was thorough and took the time to answer all my questions until I understood the explanation and knew what was needed. He remained responsive afterwards with the report and follow up questions. I definitely recommend and will use again!
Haley C.
We had a great experience with Mike. He was sweet, kind, and very thorough. He did a full inspection of our new home we are looking to buy and found good issues which we are going to bring up with the seller. Definitely recommend!
Clarence C.
NPI inspected a home I was selling and I was very impressed. I got his business card because I wanted him to do an inspection on another property. He was unavailable and instead referred me to Mike, who was also great. After my experience with these 2 inspectors, I know that NPI provides excellent services. I would recommend NPI and Mike to anyone in the need of an inspection.
Daniel B.
Excellent service. His report was thorough, with pictures of everything that could be an issue or might need replacement. He even put a summary of items that need special attention at the end. Great emails about timing, as well as text messages the day before to give you a reminder of the appointment. GREAT INSPECTOR!! Highly recommended.
Chip G.
Mike is always prompt and very thorough with his home inspections. We always use him, and refer him to our clients as well. He uncovered some things in our new home purchase that we did not see. Thanks, Mike!!
Dawn C.
Mike conducted a home inspection for a new home we are purchasing. From the first call when scheduling until the final report was sent to us, he was extremely professional, friendly, organized, and efficient. He explained everything clearly and the fee was extremely reasonable. I would recommend NPI to anyone.
Victoria D.
The inspector went above and beyond in every aspect of the inspection. He was there on time, was kind and professional, and made me feel very comfortable asking questions. He was very thorough in his answers and even drew diagrams to help me understand. He was also very patient with me. Thank you, Mike!
