What is
Move In Certified?
Move In Certified is an inspection that is performed for the seller of the property. The Seller then resolves any major issues or safety concerns that the inspection may uncover. The Seller then certifies the property to the best of their knowledge that any major problems, maintenance issues, or safety concerns have been addressed. They then can place the "Move In Certified" yard sign out with the Realtor "For Sale" sign to help draw attention to the property and show potential buyers of this certification. Also potential buyers will be able to pull the inspection report from this website.
