Who pays for a pre-purchase inspection on a Woodland, New Jersey acquisition?
The buyer typically pays, since the inspection is part of buyer due diligence. In some negotiations the seller agrees to provide a recent inspection or to credit the cost.
Inspection inside the due-diligence window, report delivered in time to support negotiation, lender, and insurance underwriting at the Woodland closing.
