They Asked for What?

 by Michael H. Wasserman A pervasive problem for some in contemporary society splits us into two camps. One particular segment of the community. They may be your friends, your neighbors, your co-parishioners. They are fully aware of the environment we live in. They read the same things you do. They receive the same guidances we all do. They take wildly different views of what those writings mean. Who they apply to. They are not easily persuaded by reason or the advice of experts. While they acknowledge legal obligations they still want to “do their own thing,” often to the detriment of others they engage with.   You know who I am talking about. Unrestrained buyers who ask for the sun, the moon and all the stars based on property inspections without regard to the terms of their inspection contingency or as-is contract. Sellers expect buyers to abide by inspection contingency terms of the contract they (the buyers) offered. If the deal is “as is,” sellers expect not to hear a thing.
