[quote=BGinRB]Ox is recently divorced with a girlfriend, no?

Would you offer as much if you knew about the issues? If you are competing with another 11 people and some are really 100% cash (you don’t know unless you are the seller, do you?) it is likely that your initial offer was too high to begin with.

Are you using the guy who helped you sell the house, a different one or you went straight to the listing agent?[/quote]

TG, the Terms and Conditions for new member PIGGS is to follow the advice of senior members. I have no choice other than to be compliant or face Pigg Violations. Someday Pigglets will have to follow my advice and I am predicting another internet bubble soon.

[quote=temeculaguy]One alternative is to get two bids to repair the structural issue and that alone, ask for that amount to be knocked off the price (not cash, they hate that even though it’s all the same). In writing, inform them of the issue and your request (now they cannot tell the next guy they were unaware), maybe even threaten to tell the next guy if it goes down that road. They have two choices, accept your discovery and new price or tell you to pound sand and go to #2 on that list, seems like you win either way but you need to be prepared to not get that house. BTW, how expensive/extensive did your inspector say it was?[/quote]

The inspector was not a structural engineer and only noted it on his report and suggested I get contractor to look at it. I am going to get bids this week and follow your advice.
