If condition is fair (without major defects to the structure) then the realtor is going to run comps and price it accordingly.

I'm still getting my feet wet with rehabbing, so it's it's nice to know that I I'll eventually have the know-how to be able to inspect things on my own.I just got an inspection on a potential house and now I have a laundry list of every problem and defect big and small.

These range from watering eyes or runny nose to birth defects, cancers, central nervous system dysfunctions.

@Mark Hegeman  I assume you referring to the last line of my poston new construction we have builders risk ( what I call fire insurance, theft, wind , storm damage etc).. then we have our General Liablity insurance  as the developer ( we are not the GC) this covers slip fall and construction defects with some exclusions. 

No reason you should live with a defective job due to their ignorance.

As Account Closed suggested, it could be a defective GRI or loose connection(s)... a short could cause problems too.

The landlord must be given notice of defects and a reasonable opportunity to make repairs, but he does not have to promise to repair before the tenant withholds rent.

That's the sort of defect there is nothing you can do about.

They cited me for about 12 violations, mostly around roofing and siding, but the main one I'm particularly concerned about is the rear porch where they cited multiple things that were defective about it like deck joist, etc. 

Ackley would neither admit any wrongdoing nor cancel the sale and return the deposit, so the Stambovskys took her to court.They lost the case, with the court citing their caveat emptor (“let the buyer beware”) responsibility to uncover the property’s defects before committing to a sale.
