Do you negotiate on minor repairs/cosmetic issues?
We have started the inspection process, and prior to the main inspector coming in, I've already noticed several more cosmetic issues (cabinets have way more wear and tear), deck needs to be repainted and has safety issues, areas where drywall repair is really obvious. On their own, each thing would not cost more than a couple hundred dollars, but then it starts adding up, particularly for making a presentable short term rental. Are these things that are negotiable? Based in California, where I have to sign off on the inspection contingencies.
