Buying a home is exciting, but it also comes with plenty of expenses. Between earnest money deposits, appraisals, moving costs, and closing expenses, homebuyers often find themselves managing several payments before they even receive the keys.
At High Road Home Inspections, we understand that every dollar matters during the homebuying process. That's why we're excited to introduce our NEW Pay at Close option, giving eligible homebuyers in Jacksonville and surrounding Northeast Florida communities the flexibility to pay for their home inspection at closing instead of upfront.
What Is Pay at Close for Home Inspections?
Pay at Close is a convenient payment option that allows eligible buyers to defer their home inspection payment until their real estate transaction closes.
Rather than paying the inspection invoice before the inspection, buyers can choose Pay at Close during the scheduling and payment process.
This option can help homebuyers manage their immediate out-of-pocket expenses without delaying an important step in purchasing their new home.
Our Pay at Close option includes a $50 additional fee, which is added to the High Road Home Inspections invoice.
Why Is Pay at Close Helpful for Homebuyers?
Purchasing a home involves more than just the down payment. Buyers may also be budgeting for insurance, appraisals, moving expenses, and other costs.
Pay at Close provides several advantages:
More Financial Flexibility: Keep more money available for other immediate homebuying expenses.
Less Upfront Financial Pressure: Schedule your home inspection without paying the inspection invoice immediately.
No Compromise on Inspection Quality: Receive the same thorough inspection services and detailed reporting.
Convenient Scheduling: Move forward with your inspection during your contractual inspection period.
A Simpler Payment Experience: Your eligible inspection invoice is arranged for payment at closing.
While Pay at Close changes when you pay, it doesn't change the quality of service you receive.
