Inspection Results for my first Property
I am purchasing my first primary residence property and I got an inspection completed today. Knowing what I know now, I definitely would like to renegotiate. There are some issues such as a leak and an older HVAC that isn't working up to optimal efficiency. There is also an older water heater. Other issues are minor and fixable. This might be a stupid question but how do you guys go about negotiating after an inspection is complete? Are you more aggressive at this point? I know at the end of the day it's the seller's call and that's why there is an inspection contingency in place but I wanted to get other opinions as this is the first time I am going through this process. The home is not that old. It's 13 years old. Any insight will be helpful. Thanks!
