Pre-Listing Home Inspections for Sellers in Hernando, Mississippi

Proudly Providing Inspection Services for Hernando, Memphis, Collierville, Olive Branch, Southaven, 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.

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

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.

Derek handles the inspections for many, many of my homebuying clients. I recommend him without hesitation due to his thoroughness, the clarity and detail of his reports, and his accessibility for questions. He knows how to talk to the clients so they have a clear understanding, without scaring them. He is who I use for my personal transactions, and I couldn’t be more pleased!

I always suggest getting a home inspection prior to signing your life away for 30 years, and this man definitely knows what he’s doing! Derek Groves is responsive, professional, and very knowledgeable. After getting an inspection from NPI, you’ll be comfortable knowing exactly what’s going on with your 30-year commitment.
Toni R.
When purchasing a house, you want to have someone inspect as if they’re going to be living there themselves, and Eric from NPI did just that! Eric checked for problems that I didn’t even know existed, checking every nook and cranny. The entire process was super easy and professional. I would recommend them to anyone!
Melanie M.
Derek was very thorough during my inspection, and he caught many things I would not have noticed as a first-time homeowner. We went through the inspection report together after completion, and Derek provided the simplest explanation possible in terms that I was able to understand. I highly recommend their services.
Henry G.
Mr. Holliday is a consummate professional! He was early to arrive, stayed focused, and his process was very detailed-oriented. While explaining his findings, I also found him to be very friendly and informative. His company was recommended by a family member, and I'm so glad we used his service.
