The home inspection is part of those "terms and conditions" that are more important at any price.
Too many times an agent will tell a buyer anything to get them to make an offer on a house. Then once the offer is made the buyer thinks "the price is the price" and the agent will say things like "don't worry about that door falling off the hinges, etc...we will let the inspector take care of that" Really? That's just crazy talk!
Use these inspection checklist to renegotiate your purchase price with a Seller, renegotiate your insurance quote and clear up a multitude of potential issues and banter between all people in the transaction.
