Home sellers may not always be accommodating during the inspection period for several reasons:
Do you want to sell your home or not?
Many times we get sellers trying to control or limit the inspections and limit the timing of use being in the home to do our job. If you have not sold a home in 30 years I highly recommend you contact us to learn more and what to do to make it go smooth
-
Emotional Attachment – Sellers often have sentimental value tied to their home, making it difficult for them to accept criticism or repair requests.
-
Market Conditions – In a seller's market, they may feel they have leverage and don't need to negotiate repairs or concessions.
-
Cost Concerns – Addressing inspection issues can be expensive, and sellers may not want to invest more money into a home they're leaving.
-
As-Is Sales – Some sellers list their home "as-is" and don't intend to make repairs, hoping buyers accept the property in its current condition.
-
Time Constraints – Sellers may be on a tight timeline to close on a new home or relocate and don't want delays from repair negotiations.
-
Fear of Deal Falling Apart – If an inspection uncovers significant issues, a seller may worry that the buyer will walk away, causing stress and uncertainty.
-
Lack of Understanding – Some sellers don't fully understand the inspection process or why certain requests are reasonable, leading to pushback.
If you're a buyer, it's helpful to approach negotiations with realistic expectations and focus on major issues rather than minor fixes.
