When to use this form
Use this checklist the day before or morning of closing to confirm the home matches the contract. You will catch unfinished repairs, missing fixtures, or new damage while there is still time to act. Buyers and agents use it to document issues and request credits or fixes; sellers use it to avoid disputes. If you have a baseline from a Property condition report form, this final pass verifies nothing changed. Handling a lease turnover? Pair it with the Move in - move out inspection form so you can compare conditions room by room. Purchasing a manufactured home? Complete a Mobile home inspection form earlier in the process, then use this checklist to confirm everything still works on handover.
Must Ask Final Walkthrough Checklist Questions
- Have all agreed repairs been completed and documented?
This confirms the seller met contract contingencies. Ask for receipts and warranty info so you can follow up if something fails.
- Do plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and appliances function as expected?
Test every faucet, toilet, outlet, breaker, light, and the thermostat. Document issues so you can negotiate a fix or credit before closing.
- Is there any new damage or changes since the inspection?
Walk each room and the exterior, looking for scuffs, leaks, pests, or debris since the last visit. Compare to your photos or report to spot any changes.
- Are all included items present and in place?
Confirm all items listed in the contract are present: appliances, window treatments, remotes, keys, and manuals. This prevents last-minute confusion or missing items.
- Are exterior drainage and grading directing water away from the home?
Look for standing water, soil erosion, and downspouts discharging against the foundation. If you see issues, a quick note can justify follow-up with a Drainage survey form.
