So my partner and I bought a property in a very sought after area, and after being beaten 3 times by unconditional offers we decided to put a strong offer forward ourselves
This meant only subject to finance of 14 days, and no building or pest inspection (property is solid brick, steel roof, and tile floor)
We’ve asked the agent if we can walk back through the property to have a good look and make some plans, but the vendor has declined until into the new year (after the 14 days so we would be unconditional)
Does this seem sus? Could we request a building and pest inspection be done even though it wasn’t in our offer? Since we have been told we can’t go back through
*update
My conveyancer says we are still able to request a b&p report as the contract states that the sale is subject to the purchaser obtaining a report within 7 days of signing the contract even though it has not been ticked, I’ve asked her to communicate this on my behalf
** newer update
We are going to book an inspection within the subject to finance period (we can’t book one within the first 7 days to to Christmas) and that way if anything really bad is found we can still withdraw due to ‘finance’. Thanks for everyone’s input!
