Contingency language in offer letter
Hi BP community,
I was using sellers agent to represent me as buyer for a duplex. It was in decent shape but the As-Is offer "buyer buying a duplex in as-is condition without any warranty".. so I wanted a contingency of satisfactory inspection.
The agent finally agreed after a long conversation and included "Purchase contingent upon Home Inspection by professional inspector."
Would that have protected me as a buyer if major things came up in the inspection?
Theres is no language included stating approval, satisfactory, etc., but only that an inspection should be done.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
