Get Your Roof Inspected by Us!

Why and Why Us?

The single biggest cause of delays and extra costs when selling a home is caused by bad roofs.

Let me explain...

Currently, in the US, the roof is not inspected until the contract has been signed and the buyer is in the option period. during the option period the buyer can back out with no recourse - just say no and leave the deal!

At this point, the buyer will hire a Home Inspector to thoroughly inspect your home. The Home Inspector's job is to find every problem he can in your home and tell the buyer.

Most issues can be solved easily, you're effectively selling in an "as seen" state. However, if the home inspector finds any serious issues, you will be expected to negotiate or risk losing the sale. In most cases, the buyer is committed and a reasonable compromise can be reached quickly. (Luckily their real estate agent is on your side because they don't want to lose the deal and their payday!)

However, if you're roof is damaged the situation changes dramatically, and the chances of losing the sale are dramatically increased.

Here's Why...

Most issues can be fixed or items replaced during the option period.

Your roof is different.

It could be fixed during the option period, but you will most likely have to pay for that and a decent roof can cost upwards of $20,000. Bear in mind also that you can't get it done cheaply because the buyer and his Inspector are watching to make sure it's done properly and with a reputable company.

Why Us?

This is where we can help and save you the $20,000+.

We have an in-house lawyer who can negotiate with the buyer to allow us to run an insurance claim and get your roof replaced with the minimum out of pocket for you.

Everybody wins - the sale goes through on time and the buyer gets new roof.
