All items that were included in the sale price-draperies, lighting fixtures-are still there.

Sun screens are in place or stored.

All appliances are operating.

Intercom, doorbell, and alarm are operational. Also check soft water system, reverse osmosis and pool pump if applicable.

Hot water heater is working.

HVAC is working, heater and a/c.

No plants or shrubs have been removed from the yard.

If you had a professional home inspection done on the home, most inspection companies will offer the option of a re-inspection. The fee is usually around $75 and the re-inspect is done on the final walk through. The inspector will primarily only look at any items that you requested to be repaired by the seller during your inspection period.
