Hi folks. Here's the scenario:
-Listed house for sale at 168,900 in October
-Dropped price to 164,500 in February
-Dropped price to 159,900 in April
- 2 weeks later accepted an offer for 152,000 plus up to 3500 in closing costs and 500 home warranty.
Inspection came back and they have a laundry list of things they want done. The only thing we have to do is do radon remediation and re-test. Everything else is cosmetic. This was our first ever offer, but there are no houses in the area we are interested in for sale. Should we comply with all if their requests or just do the radon and refuse everything else? We aren't in a rush since there aren't any houses available that we are interested in.... but who knows if we would run into the same thing with another buyer.
We feel like we are being ripped off. What would you do?
