water pipe broken before REO inspection
Hello everyone
I need some advice, I was ready to do the house inspection on saturday12/5/15 and my agent call me up to cancel, because a water pipe broke, the agent seller (deutsche bank) have to wait for a contractor to make an estimated and be approved for the bank, we were waiting for 3 weeks to do the inspection due to electric and water shout off and in a midtime the contract still in a torney review.
I have a few questions:
Should I wait to see what happen and use this as a contingence to low the price?
Should I get out of the deal?
I was looking to get into a deal pronto, we were supposed to close on 12/18/15 and this isn't happening, since I was using a FHA 203k loan and these guys don't show in a picture yet. I think a REO are a little complicated for newbies.
I like the house, but I'm not sure of the numbers yet, until I go thru the whole inspection.
Any advice and comments will be appreciated.
