We have had our house on the market for quite a while. Got an offer last month, little low but we countered to a point where we only had to bring a couple thousand to closing. We had a second mortgage out on the place when we were trying to keep out business alive when we should have just cut and run. Anyway, came to an agreement and found a new place for us that fit all our needs. We have been needing a place with a couple of separate rooms and full bathroom for my mom. Ever since my dad died 11 years ago, it has been harder and harder to maintain two places.
So they had a home inspection, no big deal. We had a few things to fix, not a problem. Our windows are double pane wood original to the house, no fogging or anything, but they are painted shut. The inspector tried to justify his existence and bill by nit picking every little damn thing so he wrote up the windows as defective. So the buyers decided they wanted new windows installed.
Uh... **** no. We said we would get them functional and all of them would open. Why anyone wants to open windows (other than in a fire) in Southern Indiana which is the allergy capitol of the world is beyond me anyway. They are already getting the place below appraised value. Their realtor is very inexperienced and quite stupid. She has been steering them in the wrong direction at every turn. Got them asking for the moon since we had a place picked out and our offer accepted so she probably thought we were desperate and would give in. They implied that we were going to half ass the repairs and demanded windows and $5k instead of the repairs so they could have them done right. We don't have to move, we just want to. So I asked our realtor to tell them to **** off and die. I don't think she put it that way...
