inspection shows totaled roof

[Bob Willis]

Hey All,

I bought a small triplex in September 2020. Now because of personal circumstances I am selling.

I just accepted an offer. The buyers had an inspection done and are claiming roof needs to be replaced because of hail damage.

The buyers then had a roofing company come out and inspect the roof, the roofing company findings supported the conclusion that hail damage had degraded the roof.

There have been no hail storms in the two years I have owned it.

When I purchased the property the previous owner declared that a new roof had been installed in 2019. My inspector found no issues with the roof when I purchased it.

I am at a loss on how to proceed. Replacing the roof will cost me $12k.

Any ideas or am I just stuck.

Thanks,
Bob
