[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pre-inspection if allowed (which is a less involved inspection prior to putting in the offer) or put an information-only inspection with right to void in the offer (may be a dealbreaker if others offer no contingencies at all).[/quote]

"Right to cancel/void" inspections are no different than inspection contingencies from a seller's perspective. It is in practice no different than a regular inspection contingency. Best way forward is to do a pre-bid inspection (either before the opens of on Sunday night/Monday morning). Then you know what you need to in order to make your strongest offer. In this market there will be offers waiving inspection (because they did pre-bid), appraisal and financing. You are unlikely to win without waiving. [/quote]

This isn’t true. We accepted an offer with an information only inspection and what it meant was that we weren’t going to get nickle and dimed for minor repairs. Sale went through fine and nothing on inspection caused any issues. If we allowed a regular inspection we’d probably have had to pay a few thousand to repair stuff.[/quote]
