Termite inspector couldn't access crawl space.

[Account Closed]

I represent a seller who has a property under contract. Due diligence was waived, only contingency was passing a termite inspection. Inspector claims the crawl space wasn't accessible and he couldn't perform inspection, so buyer wants out. The crawl space is accessible as there is a space in the side of the house for access thar is uncovered. Even if it tight should the inspector still have cameras to inspect the crawl space. There is no proof of termites. Is buyer entitled to earnest money?

Hi Lance,

If the contingency was passing a termite inspection, buyer sent an inspector and buyer failed to receive a pass from him.

Seems like the property did not pass inspection. Either it passed or it didn't.

Just my thoughts on this.

Good Luck!
