Should a cash buyer in Canton still get an inspection?
A cash buyer in Canton should still get an inspection, since paying without a loan removes the lender's requirement for one but does not remove the buyer's own risk of costly hidden issues like a failing roof or foundation problem. Skipping the inspection to close faster or look more attractive in a competitive offer trades a real financial protection for speed. A shortened inspection period is often a reasonable middle ground that keeps the protection while still moving quickly. Joel Boss recommends an inspection on every Canton cash purchase he handles.
Do I still owe a commission if my Roswell buyer walks away after the inspection?
Whether compensation is still owed after a Roswell buyer terminates during an inspection contingency depends on the specific terms of the listing agreement and buyer agency agreement signed at the start of the transaction, not on a general rule. Most agreements tie compensation to a closed sale, so a contract that ends within a valid contingency period typically does not trigger an obligation. Joel Boss reviews those agreement terms with Roswell clients before signing so there are no surprises if a deal falls through.
What does it mean to sell a house as-is?
Selling a house as-is means telling buyers upfront that you will not make repairs or give credits for issues an inspection turns up, and the price already reflects that. It does not exempt you from Georgia's legal disclosure requirements, so known defects still have to be disclosed regardless of how the listing is worded. Buyers can still inspect the home and walk away if they do not like what they find, unless the contract says otherwise. Joel Boss can tell you whether an as-is listing fits your situation.
