The pre-delivery inspection, which generally applies to newly-built homes, is a real estate term that means the buyer has the option (or requirement, depending upon how the real estate contract Home Inspections is written) to inspect the property prior to closing or settlement. These inspections generally takes distance up to a week before a closing, and they generally allow buyers the first opportunity to inspect their new home
Many local governments within the United States and Canada claim that new-home builders provide a down home warranty for a confined period, and this approximately results in down home builders conducting a pre-delivery inspection with the buyer.
