Unscrupulous REAL ESTATE AGENTS
It is unlawful for a real estate agent to inform you of or impose restrictions on which Building and Pest inspector you may use for a pre-purchase inspection. The ramifications have already been identified with one real estate agency.
WA real estate are different from other states where there is a cooling-off period. Once one enters into a contract in WA and it is accepted, there is pretty well no way out of that contract unless the roof comes down as it will state: structural only.
Additionally, it is important to note that some real estate professionals mistakenly confine the definition of a Major Structural Defect solely to roofing issues; this interpretation is inaccurate.
