Request for Repairs
If the home inspection discovers an issue the buyers are uncomfortable with, they can ask the sellers to make repairs. This is a formal request for repairs and it’s important to take this step once all inspections have been completed and issues uncovered. While there was once a time when buyers could request that torn window screens are replaced, today the request for repairs is reserved for more serious issues...true deal breakers. Your buyer’s agent will walk you through the inspection results and help you understand common requests and what you might expect.
Once the seller receives the request for repairs they can:
• Agree to the requested repairs
• Refuse to do any or all of the repairs
• Offer a monetary amount in lieu of making repair
If the seller does not agree to complete any/all repairs or offer a sufficient credit amount, you can work with your agent to determine if it’s wise and appropriate to exercise your right to terminate the contract and recoup your earnest money deposit, or to move forward with the purchase of the house as-is.
