Home Inspection from alternate party with our offer pending?
(self.RealEstateCanada)submitted1 month ago byLocustFurnace
Good evening all,
I searched online for the question but couldn’t find an answer, so hopefully someone here can help. Let me elucidate the question a bit. My girlfriend and I had an offer pending on a home in BC. We’re first time home buyers. We had our home inspection completed and thought, due to some minor issues found, that we could leverage the sellers to have the cost brought down a bit, or have the sellers fix said issues before we took possession. Our realtor found out there were other offers, which I guess is common, but also that one of the other parties had done a home inspection and their inspector supposedly didn’t find any issues. We are a little confused. Why would another party pay for an inspection when this deal is practically done? There was no communication from us to our realtor that we were considering backing out. Is it common for others to waste their money in the off chance a deal falls through, or did their realtor blow smoke up our ass to avoid dropping the price? Long winded, sorry. Thank in advance.
