House is under contract and the close date is soon. I spotted minor soffit damage where the netting ripped and a small piece snapped. The inspector already noted a lot of roof damage and I agreed to credit a large sum for various roof damage and I’m not sure if this was included. What is the best course of action? Should we settle it at the final walkthrough?

Can you prove this damage didn’t exist at the time of the inspection? From your post, it sounds like you just noticed that you are not saying it is a new issue. It’s on you if you didn’t notice it and it’s unclear if that was covered in your Inspector’s notes on the overall condition. What does your realtor say? This is not something you deal with at closing.
