Yay, Naja and Seamonkey!
And, perhaps the realtor should not even have passed the Inspector's report on to you, Naja, without first preparing you by reminding you that you had an as-is clause in your listing.
But don't mind me. I have kind of a love-hate relationship with realtors, especially male realtors. They somehow sense that I might hate them.
Bottom line - let the realtor earn your money, because it is BIG money, and don't take anything personal about the whole experience, because it most definitely is NOT personal.
And, also, everything's gonna be okay.

I would offer that many states have disclosure laws so once the realtor had the report they had no choice but to share it. I’d also offer that even though Naja is buying the house “as is” that doesn’t necessarily mean she couldn’t withdraw her offer if the inspection revealed a significant issue or issues.

RN Mack, I'm not buying a house "as is". I'm selling a house "as is". Of course they have to share the inspection results with me, but they had filled out and signed the portion saying I had to fix it, and expected me to sign and agree to fix it.
Tomorrow is the inspection for the house I'm buying.

Today I meet with contractor to sign off. He says he will get the blind down on the window where everyone can see in and remove the old dishwasher and water heater from the garage.
Also have someone coming to estimate for fixing the slider and putting in a good screen. Can't move back without the screen.. Not with an indoor cat.

RN The appraiser just left. He said "Everything looks great. There shouldn't be any problems".
I didn't even know there was a possibility of problems. LOL
So when will you be back in, Sea?

If the house is valued at less than the appraised value, the buyers loan may not cover it. That’s a pretty standard process when getting a loan on a house purchase. For example, my condo was valued by the appraiser at $25k less than what the purchase price was. I had to decide if I still wanted to buy the house. After talking with my realtor and the lender, I decided to continue with the purchase. At closing, I had to sign a document that I was aware of the difference between the selling and appraisal of the condo, in order to get the loan. It really wasn’t an issue for me as my down payment was large enough that the actual loan amount was much less than the selling price.

Naja, not exactly sure but soon. I signed off and made a final payment and Tom just put the old dishwasher and water heater in his truck.. Those are heavy, IMO. He got the blind down.
And I am getting a super sturdy and cat proof slider screen and the guy was able to find the actual front screen door I have wanted.. Amazon, Lowe's and Home Depot had nothing remotely like it. Gave them a deposit and they will install after my furniture is moved back.
I need to call the movers next.
My seasonal turnoff from Spectrum ends tomorrow. After furniture is in place I am pretty likely to need Spectrum to come out and complete setup.
Then after the slider screen is installed, I can move stuff I have in my rented room back home, and my cat too.
then I can clean here, might hire people to really make it sparkle and get the carpet cleaned.
Lots not unpacking.
Then I will still be coming here to bring in mail and water the garden, as my friend I rent from is in Hong Kong until the day after US Thanksgiving .
Definitely easier moving out while she is gone.

I was gonna say, it looks like a fun neighborhood.
And as a plus, I would guess you watching dogs won't faze them at all.

You should go back at 7 and do the haunted house. And don't tell them you are buying the house. This way you can see what they're really like.
