Should I try to renegotiate the price of a home after my home inspection?


No, renegotiating the price after a home inspection is generally not appropriate. The purpose of the home inspection is to inform you about the condition of the home you're purchasing. Your inspector will point out any necessary repairs, as well as normal wear and tear typical of most homes. Only major issues like structural, functional, or safety concerns should be addressed with the seller. The inspection isn't meant to be an opportunity to negotiate a better price, but rather to ensure you're aware of any significant problems.
