Well, I have until tommorrow to reject the deal based on the home inspection.

The only problems turned up by the inspection were appx $5,000 of repairs (I got bids, so I know the appx cost). Need some ridge vents on the roof, some parts of the chimney need repointing, a sewer line could be dug out and checked (that's the expensive bit, $2,500).

Everything else about the house is in very good condition - all electrical replaced, new elec panel, new hi-efficiency furnace/central air, all new ducting, new water heater, new roof, new windows, etc, etc.

So we're kind of down to haggling over splitting or not splitting $5K.
