Do I trust this agent and do the deal?

[Roberto Borja]

Got a property under contract from an agent that is doing the property management. At first, he said everything was functional and livable. Then after going under contract he said they replaced water main from cast iron to PVC without pulling permits. And the roof might need to be replaced soon.

Inspector found the roof had 10 years of life left, but also found the hole to look into the roof was sealed. Also found ungrounded outlets, weak foundation where they replaced the water main, rotting fascia, sealed electrical panel so it couldn't be inspected, mold and water stains on the ceiling (looked old), duct taped holes in the wall and window, and more. Essentially looked like he had an untrained handy man come in to band-aid everything and possibly cover up any shody work.
He offered to have his handymen come in and take care of everything and then have my inspector come back out for cheaper than I could do it. Or I could get quotes and offer a lower price based on the quotes I get.

What should I do?
1. walk away because the deal/agent can't be trusted

2. Use my own contractors even if it costs more

3. Use their handymen and have the inspector check it out afterwards.
