It will allow you to negotiate, buy or abandon the real estate project for another more interesting opportunity. Our goal is to protect you and reassure you of the purchase, then to inform you about budgets for renovations and energy efficiency improvements. Your real estate is ultimately a long-term financial matter. Use a HOME INSPECTION CONTINGENCY or DUE DILIGENCE CONTINGENCY CLAUSE for home negotiations. An inspection contingency clause is in place to protect the buyer from purchasing a home in need of serious repairs without some kind of compromise from the seller or being able to walk away. Those buyers who choose to waive inspection contingency take a big risk.
