A number of cities in the Minneapolis metro area require a Truth-in-Sale-of-Housing or Point-of-Sale inspection when selling a home. See the chart below for cities with this requirement… click here for a chart with live links, including lists of common repairs for many cities compiled by independent evaluator Structure Tech Home Inspections.
