The Signals Buyers Read
Buyers don’t just inspect the home…
They read the signals.
Small Details That Kill Big Deals
• Yellowed smoke detectors
→ signals aging systems
• Loose outlets
→ suggests electrical concerns
• Dirty vents
→ raises air quality questions
• Sticking doors
→ hints at foundation or humidity issues
These details don’t kill deals by themselves…
But they create doubt.
And doubt changes negotiations.
The goal isn’t to pass inspection…
It’s to remove the surprise.
