We are under contract for a home. The price of the home is consistent with comps. However this house was a rental with a lot of deferred maintenance vs the other homes that were owned by homeowners were better cared for and up to date. After the inspection we learned the water heater is over 15 years old, the hvac is 15 years old and the roof is 20 years old with hail damage and the home possibly has an active rodent infestation. Or at least one at a previous time. I am inclined to ask for concessions on all items.
What would you do? This is not a hot market. My area is a buyers market and we are willing to walk.
