It’s scary to think about, but sometimes you have to walk away from closing on a house.
If the house has title issues or a bad inspection, it’s likely more trouble than it’s worth. Title issues can cause headaches and cost you lots of money for years to come.
The same thing goes for inspections. If your inspection turns up with some big red flags, there are probably more in hiding.
You also need to pay attention to your gut feeling when closing on a house. If your intuition tells you that there’s something wrong, listen to it!
Your agent will help you negotiate the contract so that you can walk away from a bad house in situations like this. That’s just one more reason why you need to have an amazing real estate agent by your side!
