First Time Home Buyers / Tampa / Final Walk Through

The day is finally here, all the inspections are completed and all the paperwork is at the Title Company. Only one last thing to do before we close,we need to take one more look at the property before we sign the papers. Usually the walk through is done right before the closing, but it can be done the day before, this is a good idea if the closing is scheduled early in the morning. When we arrive at the house a cursory inspection of the grounds is completed and we look at the exterior for any obvious changes since the home inspection. Inside we check to make sure the appliances are still there, turn on the water and flush the toilets. Basically we make sure the home is ready for the new owner, all personal belongings of the previous occupants should be removed and the interior should be broom clean. If anything is not up to standards, we can request an escrow from the seller to be held by the Title Company to insure that the seller complies in the repair, cleanup or removal of debris. The walk through does not include new discoveries of items may not suit you, andhave not been addressed prior to the walk through. After completion, you will be required to complete a Final Walk Through form, accepting the property or accepting subject to items noted on the form.
