Failed sewer scope, should we walk?

[Andrew Emery]

Hi folks, we are into our second potential deal that might blow up.

My question is should we walk away from this deal? We have had the sewer scoped twice and found an offset both times, and we are asking the seller to repair prior to closing but they have declined fixing it, saying they've never had an issue with it. The property is in an older part of Colorado Srpings with mature trees and the roots have breached the pipe creating a hole. The estimated cost is between $3,500-$5,000. Everything else on the property is in good repair. We have until tomorrow to decide. What are your thoughts.

Thanks
