How to Negotiate Repairs After a Home Inspection: Haggling Tips for Buyers

HOW TO NEGOTIATE REPAIRS AFTER A HOME INSPECTION
When buying a home in Pensacola, FL you will most likely be told by your realtor agent to get a home inspection. After the inspection, you'll get the report with issues or problems found by the inspector. Some of these problems could cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars but, this is the home you really want, no matter what. There's only one thing left to do. Negotiate! Some sales may have a repair cost allowance and some home may be an "AS-IS" sale because the seller doesn't have the extra money to do the repairs. In this case you could negotiate the sale price to help cover the cost of repairs. Some sellers are willing to do this because the house may have been on the market for a long period of time or they need to rush the sale because of unforeseen circumstances.
Here are several ways you can negotiate repairs:
  1. Ask the seller to drop the asking price
  2. Ask the seller to pay for some repairs and drop the asking price
  3. Ask the seller to pay for all the repairs
  4. Ask the seller to pay for major repairs
  5. Ask the seller to pay for minor repairs
The seller may not agree to any of these listed above but, you will need to decide what is in your best interests.
