Exciting day! 🎉 Congratulations to my first-time homebuyer, who's doing her final walk-through today for the closing on her very first home tomorrow! 🏡✨
🌟Essential Items to Check During a Final Walk-Through
Here's a quick checklist to ensure your new home is in tip-top shape before closing:
✅Verify Repairs: Confirm all agreed-upon repairs from the inspection report were completed.
💧Plumbing Check: Run faucets, flush toilets, and ensure there are no leaks.
🔥Heating & Cooling: Test the HVAC system to ensure it’s functioning properly.
📺Appliances: Check that all included appliances are present and operational.
🚪Doors & Windows: Open and close doors and windows to check for functionality and damage.
💡Lights & Outlets: Turn on lights and test all outlets to ensure electrical systems are working.
🧼General Cleanliness: Confirm the home is clean and any items that were supposed to be removed are gone.
🚿Water Heater & Electrical Panel: Confirm the water heater is working and the electrical panel is labeled correctly.
🌳Exterior Areas: Look for any damage to siding, roofing, or outdoor structures since the last visit.
🧺Personal Belongings: Ensure the seller has removed their belongings unless agreed otherwise.
Your final walk-through ensures the home is as expected and ready for your move-in!
