how to negotiate reasonable requests after home inspection

What if the inspector cheats and uses Google earth pictures of the roof that are not the current roof , like 5 years old ?

Yes they used the Google pic for the roof and said it pooled in spots. The pics had my uncle's car in it and he's been gone since 2015

Any how ,the lender pulled out and I was forced to take a cash offer .

So true. There isn’t a perfect home. Smart tip to shorten the inspection contingency to 10 days.

What do you do if the descendant wanted the home to stay in the family and not to be sold and how to do this as executor and a beneficiary?

This is a very informative video! Thank you!

Who Negotiate the inspection items ? The buyer’s agent or the buyer’s lawyer?

Thank you for the tips. Very informative video, Thank you for sharing!

I'm in contract; the house was on the market for 6 mos. We agreed on 5k off asking w/3% seller's credits towards closing. Inspection found Roof has about a yr or less and hot water heaters old & leaking. Is it fair that I ask for the hot water heater to be replaced and half the cost of the roof off the cost of the home? I'm not sure if I can get more credits because it's conventional. The seller just bought the home last yr for 42.5k less. There are other issues (i.e. flooring, small electric issues other weird modifications they made) but I want to focus on major issues and be fair. Is my roof/hot water heater request reasonable?

Thank you for your helpful video. What if the total costs of reasonable repairs far exceeds the amount of the buyer's closing costs? In California, can the buyer ask for a seller credit greater than the amount of the closing costs?

BTU WHAT IF YOU FIN DROOFINH PLUMBING ELECTRICAL AND A SLOPING IN THE FLOORS, SAGGING IN THE ROOF AND GENERAL ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS...ONA 1`30000 HOUSE WHAT TO DO!? THE HOUSE BEEN ON THE MARKET FOR 4 MONTHS..AND HAD ONE FAILED PENDING OFFER BEFORE MINE, THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE THAT BUYER HAD A FHA LOAN AND THA THEY DID NOT WANT TO GET A STRUCTURAL REPORT AS fha REQUIRED HMMM ANY WAY NOT SURE IF THIS SI WORTH IT I LIKE THE HOUSE BUT JUST NOT SURE REALTOR IS NOT HELP

This is my situation: I am buying a house that cost $101,000. The closing costs are $10,000. Because I am getting an FHA loan, the seller can only contribute 6% of the cost of the house to me for closing costs. That means I still have to pay $4000 for closing costs. I just had a home inspection done and found out that there is a structural issue with the house. Some of the floor joists have rotted on the ends and are falling down and the floor is sagging. Also, there’s no insulation in the ceiling. The house has not had an appraisal done yet. I was told by my real estate agent, who is also the sellers agent, that the FHA appraiser will not catch these things. What would be a reasonable repair request of the seller? should I just ask them to pay to have the floor joists fixed? Should I ask them to sell it for less than what the house appraises for and the amount that it would cost to fix the floor joists so that I could use that money to have them fixed if the lender will do that? Or should I just forget about telling the seller about the structural issue and pay for it myself somehow?

Very informative 👍

As a buyer is it unreasonable to ask that the repairs needed be done by a contractor of my choice or at least we should agree on the contractor?

Is it legal or bad faith practice to request NOT to see the home inspection as the listing agent?

Very educational, thank you!
