🏡✨ WELCOME BACK TO FUN FACT FRIDAY!
You’ve been pre-approved. ✅
You found the house. 🏡
Your offer was accepted. 🎉
You paid your earnest money. 💰
You completed your inspections. 🔍
Now what?!
Today we’re talking about something that sounds WAY more intimidating than it actually is…
🛠️ THE TRR — Treatments, Repairs & Replacements
After inspections are complete, we sit down and review what was found. And trust me—inspection reports can be LONG. 😅 That doesn’t necessarily mean the house is falling apart. Inspectors are paid to document what they see!
This is where we decide what items are important enough to address with the seller.
Depending on the contract and inspection findings, we may request things like:
🔨 Specific repairs
🏠 Replacement of certain defective items
💰 A credit or other negotiated solution, when permitted
🔧 Further evaluation by an appropriate professional
But here’s the important part:
A TRR isn’t a wish list. 😉
We’re not trying to turn a resale home into a brand-new house. We’re looking at the inspection findings, your priorities, the contract, and the bigger picture to determine what makes sense to request.
Once the TRR is submitted, the seller can respond according to the terms of the contract, and that’s when the negotiation begins.
This is one of those parts of buying a home where having an experienced REALTOR®️ in your corner REALLY matters. My job is to help you understand what was found, keep the emotions out of a giant inspection report, and advocate for you while keeping our eyes on the ultimate goal:
🔑 Getting you to the closing table with confidence.
Another step down! Next up, we’re getting closer and closer to those KEYS. 👀🏡
Thinking about homeownership but don’t know where to start? Let’s make a plan today!
