    Thanks all, great information as always from this board.

    sdr: thanks for the info, it’s actually a newer house, and the repairs are not terribly extensive. I just ask out of general curiosity in how these transactions work, and my general cheapness.

    walter: That’s great to hear, gives me some hope when I ask for repair costs.

    A personal peeve of mine is that the big ones are probably known to the seller/realtor and I’ve yet to hear them pointed out by them.[quote]

    Agreed threadkiller. One of things that came up in the home inspection was that the pool heater doesn’t turn on, and probably hadn’t for some time judging from the big rodent nest that currently resides in it. When the seller was asked about this, he casually stated “oh yes, that’s right, it hasn’t worked for a couple years now I think”

    a relative recently purchased a short sale in OC. the former owners ended up leaving the place in an absolute mess with the pool turned green. nothing structural, just bunch of left over trash and badly stained carpet that was going to get removed anyway.

    is this common with short sales? I thought ppl only did this type of stuff with foreclosures.
