Inspection Repair Lists in Columbus, Ohio

Transit & Flow Group completes repairs identified in a home inspection report, the same document a licensed inspector hands a buyer or seller during a real estate transaction. This service is defined by its source: if a home inspection report is where the repair list came from, whether you’re buying or selling, this is the right starting point. Request Property Support with the inspection report attached, or call (614) 382-0000.

Is this what you’re seeing?

• A buyer’s inspection report with a list of items flagged for repair before closing
• A seller who received their own pre-listing inspection and wants findings addressed before the property goes on market
• An inspector’s report full of unfamiliar terminology, and no clear sense of which items are urgent versus minor
• A closing date that depends on repairs being completed and documented
• A repair list that mixes several trades (electrical, plumbing, exterior, structural) under one report
• Uncertainty about whether an item is worth fixing or negotiating as a credit instead

How pricing works

Inspection Repair Lists uses diagnostic-fee pricing for the first step, not a flat number sight-unseen. Here’s the structure:

• Flat scoping-visit fee. We walk the property against the inspection report, verify each item in person, and produce a written, itemized repair quote. Starting at $299..
• Credit toward booked repair work. The full $249 fee is credited toward the cost of the work if you book it as a result of the visit..
• Repair execution priced separately. Once the scope is confirmed, each repair is priced individually (or as a bundled range for the full list) and scheduled against your transaction timeline. This part uses starting and range pricing, since inspection findings vary enormously in scope.
• No obligation to book with us. The written quote is yours to use for negotiation, whether you complete the repairs with Transit & Flow or elsewhere.

As general market context, not a Transit & Flow quote, HomeAdvisor data cited by Rocket Mortgage puts the average professional home inspection itself at around $343, typically ranging from about $296 to $424 depending on home size. That figure is for the inspection, not the repairs it identifies, but it’s a useful reference point for what the report driving this whole process typically costs to generate. Request Property Support with your inspection report for a scoping-visit appointment. Final scope and price subject to verification once we’ve reviewed the property or repair list. Permits and inspections may be required for some repair items, and we flag that during scoping.

What’s included

• A property walk-through cross-referenced against every item in the inspection report
• A written, itemized quote covering each flagged repair, organized by trade and urgency
• Photo documentation of each item both before and after repair
• Coordination across multiple trades under one point of contact, since inspection reports rarely flag just one system
• Scheduling built around your closing timeline where a deadline applies

What’s not included

• The inspection itself; that’s performed by a licensed home inspector, not by Transit & Flow
• Repair items requested outside the inspection report itself; see Buyer Repair Lists or Seller Repair Lists if the request is coming from a party rather than the report
• Environmental findings such as radon, mold, or asbestos; these require separate qualified testing and remediation providers and are not services Transit & Flow performs
• Negotiation of which items get fixed versus credited; that’s a decision for the buyer, seller, and their agents

How this differs from Buyer and Seller Repair Lists

Inspection Repair Lists, Buyer Repair Lists, and Seller Repair Lists often cover overlapping ground, but they’re defined differently. Inspection Repair Lists is defined by its source: the inspection report itself, regardless of which side of the deal you’re on. Buyer Repair Lists and Seller Repair Lists are defined by who’s requesting the work: buyer-requested repairs as a condition of closing, versus seller-driven repairs done pre-listing to avoid inspection issues later, or in response to a buyer’s request after their own inspection. In practice, a buyer’s inspection report often becomes both an Inspection Repair List and a Buyer Repair List at the same time, and that’s fine. Whichever page you land on first, we’ll scope the actual work the same way; the labels just help you (and us) describe where the request originated.

Central Ohio context

Central Ohio’s mixed housing stock means inspection reports vary a lot by neighborhood and home age. Older homes in areas like Clintonville, Bexley, and German Village tend to generate longer findings lists, original electrical and plumbing, aging roofing, foundation and grading issues shaped by our clay soil and freeze-thaw winters. Newer construction in Dublin, New Albany, and Lewis Center usually produces shorter reports, though builder-grade materials at 15 to 20 years old are starting to show up as findings too. Either way, timing matters: Central Ohio’s active spring and summer selling season means inspection-driven repair requests cluster tightly, and a scoping visit booked quickly after the report is issued gives the most schedule flexibility before a closing date locks it in.
