What is the name of your state? Tennessee
We are in the process of buying a home and all paperwork except closing is done. All contracts signed and home inspection done. We have agreed on certain things being fixed prior to closing.
If these things are not fixed by then can they just offer us at closing a dollar amount to fix them ourself or would they have to delay closing.
Second question. We had a bad storm here this week and two trees fell on the property. One of them took out part of the fence in the back yard. Is it the owners insurance that has to cover this or how would I go about getting the trees removed before closing as owner has it in contract that they would not fix anymore things if they were found in the inspection but it says nothing about if something like this happens between signing papers and actual closing. If I insist on them getting the trees out can they then back out of the deal/
