Agents: Text Me Before “Probably Fine” Blows Up Your Deal

Home › Blog › For Agents

Water stain on the ceiling. Crack in the basement wall. A panel that looks older than you. A roof that’s “probably fine.”

“It’s probably fine” are famous last words. Gloss over it at the showing and it turns into a big whammy on inspection day, with your client standing right there.

Here’s the whole deal

Take a pic and text it. FaceTime me from the basement. Call me from the driveway. If I can pick up, you get a straight, quick read: probably nothing, or worth a closer look before your buyer writes the offer.

  • It’s free.
  • No pitch. No follow-up begging.
  • I won’t go around you to your client.
  • Call me even if you use another inspector. I mean that.

Text conversation with Kyle at PreFlight: an agent sends a photo and gets a free answer

Do I want to earn your business someday? Absolutely. But I’m never going to ask or beg for it. That comes on its own.

The fine print (I’m an inspector, there’s always fine print)

A look through a phone camera isn’t an inspection and doesn’t replace one. It’s a heads-up to help you and your buyer decide what to do next. And I don’t throw out repair numbers, on the phone or in a report. That conversation belongs to you and your client. I’ll tell you what concerns me and why.
