For homeowners preparing to sell

Before you list, find what could cost you the sale.

Have your home inspected before it goes on the market. A BrickKicker pre-listing home inspection gives you more time to understand observed conditions, plan follow-up with a separate qualified professional, and discuss pricing and disclosures with your REALTOR before the sign goes up.

A clearer seller path

Fix it, price it, or disclose it — before buyers see it.

Pre-listing inspections help owners identify observed conditions early. That can provide more time to plan repairs, gather information, consider disclosures, and set a clearer listing strategy. It does not guarantee a sale, savings, closing outcome, or future buyer-inspection result.

BrickKicker documents inspection findings and does not perform repairs or treatment. Any such work is handled separately by DeTect or another qualified professional, with scope confirmed independently.

01

Inspect

Start with a pre-listing home inspection. An optional DeTect Termite & Moisture / WDI service can be coordinated through the same company and office. Scope, timing, and access are confirmed at scheduling.

02

Understand

Use the color photo report and clear defect summary to organize observed conditions and the questions that need a next step.

03

Prepare

Review inspection reports and navigate a smoother path to selling with a clear plan—helping reduce last-minute surprises, emotions, and drama that can sink a deal.

What can hold up the next step?

Find big-ticket questions before they become a buyer surprise.

Structural
Crawl space
Electrical & HVAC
Plumbing
Moisture

Any of these may lead to repair requests, buyer hesitation, longer negotiations, or a need for a more detailed follow-up. Accessible components, site conditions, and inspection scope are confirmed for the property at scheduling.

Optional coordination

Termite, moisture, and WDI questions in one office call.

BrickKicker homeowner pre-listing savings

Double the services. Save even more.

Combine your BrickKicker pre-listing home inspection with a termite and moisture inspection / WDI letter. One office coordinates both services and confirms your combined-service savings and schedule. Prefer a home inspection only? Ask about standalone pre-listing savings.

Have a mailer or brochure code? Include it with your request. Our office will confirm the applicable offer before scheduling.

Homeowner pre-listing preparation only—not buyer inspections or termite/WDI letters ordered for a buyer’s purchase or closing. Available savings and service scope are confirmed with the office. No additional discounts may be added.
