Walk-Through

Prior To Closing

Prior to settlement, buyers are entitled to walk through the property. As a purchaser, you want nothing more than to assure that the property is being delivered in the condition promised by the l seller. If they property is/to be "broom clean," the house should be entirely devoid of tras^ and old furniture. If an old car was to be removed from the yard, it should be gone. If the appliances worked when the contract was ratified, they should work now. With new property, you'll yvant to walk through with the builder's representative and your inspector. Items that are incomplete, or not done at all should be marked on the builder's "punch list." Naturally, a duplicate buyer's list should be maintained.

Buyers should insist that all seller obligations are satisfied and if they are not satisfied, buyers could then demand suitable compensation. For instance, if a repair is not made, then an amount from the seller should be placed in escrow t6 assure completion. (
