How Should I Respond to Buyer Repair Requests After an Inspection?
Inspection negotiations are one of the most important moments in a transaction — and one where professional guidance protects seller equity.
⭐ Separate “Must-Fix” From “Nice-to-Have”
I help sellers prioritize:
-
Safety issues
-
Structural concerns
-
Lender-required items
Over cosmetic requests.
⭐ Smart Response Options
Sellers may:
-
Complete specific repairs
-
Offer repair credits
-
Adjust price
-
Decline non-essential requests
Every response is strategic — not emotional.
⭐ Why Experience Matters
Knowing which requests are standard versus excessive keeps deals intact and protects your bottom line.
