Question & Answer
Review the question and all answer choices
Renegotiate the price only
Option A is incorrect because while renegotiation might be a possible outcome of inspection findings, the primary purpose of the inspection period is not limited to price renegotiation. Buyers can cancel entirely if issues are unacceptable.
Conduct inspections and potentially cancel the contract
Take possession of the property
Option C is incorrect because taking possession of the property typically occurs after closing, not during the inspection period. Buyers generally do not have the right to occupy the property during this contingency period.
Make modifications to the property
Option D is incorrect because making modifications to the property is not permitted during the inspection period. Buyers are only allowed to inspect and evaluate, not alter the property.
