How Long ???
Dave ,,, here is an example of a problem that I haven't read about here...
Hypothetical story; Buyer finds boat ,, boat is looking pretty good. Buyer and Seller come to terms on price, subject to survey. The survey turns up deck problems. Say, some of the deck core is rotten and the deck will need repair. Then, refinish I suppose. The Buyer decides to look around for a repair .. so that he/she can factor in the repair cost and ask the Seller to work with him/her to get the repair done and the deal done. One problem.. the boatyards are so expensive that their repair will kill the deal. What does the Buyer do now? The Buyer can't go through with the deal even though he/she wants to buy the boat. Does the Buyer approach the Seller and say "find a repair guy or the deals's off" ? I suppose that would be the case. I guess what I am asking is: What happens if the repair isn't that complicated but there isn't any affordable repair people in the area? === "Dave" wrote in message ...

Skip the "Duh" crap, Thomas. It betrays your own limitations, not mine. That was precisely my point. However, depending on what part of the country you live in you may find a lot of potential buyers who feel they have to try and haggle the last dime on the price. That kind of buyer tries to take quite literally Wayne's "issues that you did not know about at the time of your offer." The back of my hand to such a buyer. |
