Key takeaways

- Sellers can fix issues before listing
- Photos and records help negotiations
- Repair options are easier to weigh when the plan is clear
A crawl space can hide costly surprises, and a deal is a good time to look.
For buyers
Ask for a crawl space inspection if the general inspection flags moisture, mold or structure, or if the space has never been looked at. A photo-based report makes repair requests easier.
For sellers
A clean, dry, well-documented crawl space helps a listing. Fixing problems before buyers find them avoids last-minute surprises and keeps the sale on track.
Keep records
Save photos, moisture readings and repair notes. They are useful for the next owner too.
