So, I have been reading a lot of conflicting advice on using an inspection report as a negotiation tool. Some people say in this market you should just take it or leave it, but we’re looking at a property with some aging HVAC and roof concerns that weren't disclosed.
For those who actually managed to get a price drop or a closng credit based on the report how did you frame it?
I’m trying to figure out if the inspector’s report is usually enough leverage on its own, or if you need to bring in separate contractors to get official quotes before the seller will budge. Would love to hear how anyone here handled those back and forth negotiations after the report came back.
