From the seller's standpoint, if the Seller's Inspection has been completed and the results of the inspection show that the house has no significant issues that have not already been dealt with, there are unlikely to be as many contingency or special clauses in the Offer to Purchase. Typically, when a prospective buyers sees major items that have not yet been taken care of, he is suspicious that there may be other problems just under the surface so the Offer to Purchase will include contingency clauses about everything imaginable that could go wrong with the property. The purchaser can hardly be blamed for wanting to make sure that there won't be expensive repairs or renovations that will show up after closing.

The Seller's Inspection eliminates those repair hassles that can pop up at the last minute and delay the closing. Looking over the report and repairing each of the questionable areas identified in the home inspection will make the entire closing and sale process go much more smoothly. The repairs can be completed prior to the Offer to Purchase and even before the house is placed on the market.
