Final walk-through
A final walkthrough is used to confirm that all requested and agreed to home repairs found during the home inspection were completed according to the terms of the contract.
During the walk through, you should check the following:
- All repairs are complete
- House is in the condition listed in the contract
- House should be cleaned, carpets shampooed and vacuumed and read for move-in
- Hot and cold water
- Any appliances
- Test the outlets
If you are working with a conscientious seller, this walkthrough should be fast and painless.
What to do if there is a problem
If you discover that a repair has not been fixed to your satisfaction then notify your real estate agent.
Next Steps
Now that you are comfortable with the home and the contract terms have been met, you close the agreement and sign all paperwork.
