Pre-Listing Inspections

Eventually your buyers are going to conduct an inspection. You may as well know what they are going to find by getting there first. Having an inspection performed ahead of time helps in many other ways:

  1. The seller can choose a certified InterNACHI inspector rather than be at the
    mercy of the buyer's choice of inspector.
  2. The seller can schedule the inspections at the seller's convenience.
  3. It might alert the seller of any items of immediate personal concern,
    such as radon gas or active termite infestation.
  4. The seller can assist the inspector during the inspection, something
    normally not done during a buyer's inspection.
  5. The seller can have the inspector correct any misstatements in the
    inspection report before it is generated.
  6. The report can help the seller realistically price the home if problems exist.
  7. The report can help the seller substantiate a higher asking price if problems
    don't exist or have been corrected.
  8. A seller inspection reveals problems ahead of time which:
    1. might make the home show better.
    2. gives the seller time to make repairs and shop for competitive
      contractors.
    3. permits the seller to attach repair estimates or paid invoices to
      the inspection report.
    4. removes over-inflated buyer procured estimates from the negotiation table.
  9. The report might alert the seller to any immediate safety issues found,
    before agents and visitors tour the home.
  10. The report provides a third-party, unbiased opinion to offer to potential
    buyers.
  11. A seller inspection permits a clean home inspection report to be used as a
    marketing tool.
  12. A seller inspection is the ultimate gesture in forthrightness on the part
    of the seller.
  13. The report might relieve a prospective buyer's unfounded suspicions, before
    they walk away.
  14. A seller inspection lightens negotiations and 11th-hour renegotiations.
  15. The report might encourage the buyer to waive the inspection contingency.
  16. The deal is less likely to fall apart the way they often do when a buyer's
    inspection unexpectedly reveals a problem, last minute.
  17. The report provides full-disclosure protection from future legal claims.

Copies of the inspection report along with receipts for any repairs should be made available to potential buyers.

Moose Jaw Warriors Hockey Club
" The Moose Jaw Warriors Hockey Club was able to utilize the Ozonation process that Barry Webster is developing in our community. During the rampant H1N1 flu season we used him a few times to make sure that our room, our equipment and our staff offices were as healthy as possible. and didn't have any confirmed cases of the H1N1 virus. The hockey smell has also been virtually eliminated and the air purity and bacteria levels of several strains of bacteria has been reduced dramatically.

The Moose Jaw Warriors and Barry Webster from 4A Home Inspections have used the Warriors dressing room to try out 2 different kinds of Ozone generators to develop an efficient and adequate exposure time to treat our dressing rooms and equipment.

In closing we have had no adverse health or physical effects from having either form of Ozone treatment in our dressing room or on our equipment. We would recommend this process to anyone in sport as a safe and effective way to keep things as healthy and clean as is possible in the sport enviroment. We offer our full support from the players, staff, management and board in this treatment.

If there are any questions or concerns about the process feel free to contact our organization and talk to either of us. "
Sincerely,
~Curtis Amiot ( Athletic Therapist ) &
Jeff Truitt ( Director Of Hockey Operations )

Ozonation For Sports Rooms, Exercise Facilities & Change Rooms

Athletic rooms for example carry many airborne and static contaminents, most of which release an odour which can be harmful to your health. Our Ozonation service can rid your locker room, gym, change rooms, locker rooms of those cultures growing on your equipment and floating about the facility.


Many athletes are affected by an illness during the peak time of their sport, and this has been linked back to the bacteria found on the equipment and in the locker room. Our ozonation service can remove that foul odour from the equipment, while purifying the air thus lowering the chance of illness by providing a clean and bacteria free enviroment.

General Information

My Promise To You

Choosing the right home inspector can be difficult. Unlike most professionals, you probably will not get to meet me until after you hire me. Furthermore, different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods and yes, different pricing. One thing for sure is that a home inspection requires work, a lot of work. Ultimately a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector's own effort. If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new home, I guarantee that I will give you my very best effort. This I promise you.

What Really Matters

Buying a home? The process can be stressful. A home inspection is supposed to give you peace of mind, but often has the opposite effect. You will be asked to absorb a lot of information in a short time. This often includes a written report, checklist, photographs, environmental reports and what the inspector himself says during the inspection. All this combined with the seller's disclosure and what you notice yourself makes the experience even more overwhelming. What should you do?

Relax. Most of your inspection will be maintenance recommendations, life expectancies and minor imperfections. These are nice to know about. However, the issues that really matter will fall into four categories:

  1. Major defects. An example of this would be a structural failure.
  2. Things that lead to major defects. A small roof-flashing leak, for example.
  3. Things that may hinder your ability to finance, legally occupy or insure the home.
  4. Safety hazards, such as an exposed, live buss bar at the electric panel.

Anything in these categories should be addressed. Often a serious problem can be corrected inexpensively to protect both life and property (especially in categories 2 and 4).

Most sellers are honest and are often surprised to learn of defects uncovered during an inspection. Realize that sellers are under no obligation to repair everything mentioned in the report. No home is perfect. Keep things in perspective. Do not kill your deal over things that do not matter. It is inappropriate to demand that a seller address deferred maintenance, conditions already listed on the seller's disclosure or nit-picky items.

Doug & Gloria

" We asked Barry to complete two house inspections for us in Moose Jaw. The inspections had to be arranged around the tenants’ schedule and even with those hurdles, they were done in a very timely fashion. Both reports were extremely extensive and assisted us in determining what work had to be done immediately and what could wait until a later time. Thanks again Barry for your great work! "
