The lesson isn't that you always waive the contingency. The lesson is that sellers often are aware of issues needing costly repair and they don't want to cover the cost. So, an offer of $200,000 and no inspection trumps an offer of $205,000 with inspection that will reveal the foundation needs $20,000 of underpinning.[/quote]

It is because of HGTV they expect used homes to be perfect. My house got a thing flagged in 1991 on lower grade improper window install in porch in 1991. I know as bought house in 2000. My inspector flagged. I casually mentioned it to seller on walkthrough, he joked got flagged same thing.

In 2018 when go to sell house some snot noise rookie buyer flagged it. I am like dude who cares. Windows are 35 years old and porch is unheated. One of his nits and mats. I sold other buyer more experienced who I guarantee won’t replace windows. Porch is unheated. Has a large slider no need to ever use the old windows.

This is why many want no inspection. [/quote]
