Default Home inspection dilemma - missing gutters

found in an inspection...


And if the Seller and his Agent were doing THEIR job, that value would
be ZERO. Otherwise a Seller might as well just give them that money
off the price up front. They are putting out a red carpet inviting
their inspector to justify his fee by comingn up with things to fix up
to that limit.

These customs do vary by local practice, but my policy is that they
can inspect all they want, but the property will be sold As-Is. If
they find something objectionable they have XX hours or X days to
cancel, otherwise its take it or leave it.
