your inspection revealed a few small problems, you could still buy the property and do the repairs yourself. Use the problems as a bargaining chip to get a reduced price from the seller after getting a quote from a professional for the cost of repairs. Don’t estimate based on your judgment, and don’t let the seller decide how much he thinks it will cost. Ask a professional. Also, don’t let the seller get the quote. • Be prepared to walk away. This echoes to our earlier point about not getting emotionally attached until you have bought and moved in. If, at the end of the day, you find out the compromise required is more than you’re prepared to make, just walk away.
