Checking repairs made after inspection negotiation?
Hello BP,
I just had the inspection done on a property I have under contract. It came back that the chimney is leaking due to improper flashing. I asked the seller to have the chimney re-flashed before I would close on the property. He agreed to the repair but now my question is, how do I know if he really made the proper repair or if the repair was made at all? Do I hire a contractor to go look at it before closing to make sure it was done right? Do I ask to get on the roof to take a look to see if it was done correctly?
Thank you,
Jordan
