Final Walkthrough Checklist

You’ve worked tirelessly to get into the perfect home and you are now in the home stretch. Open escrow, check! Appraisal, check! Home inspection, check, check! You are nearing the finish line ready to close escrow but not so fast!
Inspect LV provides you with a detailed checklist style form for completing the final walkthrough. Many of the components listed are overlooked, and not tested during the final walkthrough. This is mostly due to Clients solely relying on the information contained in the home inspection report, and not knowing what they should be reviewing and looking for themselves prior to property acceptance. It is important to understand the property condition can and often does change between the time of the inspection, and the time of title transfer. We HIGHLY recommend a thorough and complete final walkthrough inspection.
A Final Walkthrough & Release is vital at the conclusion of your escrow period. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems will fail from time to time during an escrow. Our insurance policy prevents us from providing the Final Walkthrough for you. We highly encourage Agents and our Clients to do their own Walkthrough inspection and test all systems to make sure they are running correctly. This Final Walkthrough Checklist will prove to be a resource for you and your Clients in every transaction.
