During the inspection period, we will schedule a licensed home inspector to do a thorough inspection of the home. Once this is complete, the inspector will provide us with a detailed report. You can take the issues as-is or request the seller to address some or all of the findings. We will be mindful and reasonable on smaller items while being very cautious and vigilant of potentially significant issues. 06 ORDER AN inspection

Issues typically arise after the home inspection, and those issues tend to result in another round of negotiations for credits or fixes. 07 NEGOTIATE final offer

Ask for credit for the work that needs to be done. Likely, the last thing the seller wants to do is repair work. Think “big picture” and don’t sweat the small stuff.

A tile that needs some caulking or a leaky faucet can easily be fixed. Repairs are still up for negotiation and perhaps a small credit would help with closing costs.

Keep your poker face. The listing agent will be present during inspections and revealing your comfort level with the home could come back to haunt you in further discussions or negotiations.
