Under an As-Is contract, what is the seller's obligation to repairs discovered during an inspection?

• A. Must repair all defects found during the inspection
• B. Reimburse the buyer at settlement for all repairs
• C. No obligation to make repairs
• D. Must repair to a pre-determined percentage of the sales price

Answer: (C)

In an As-Is contract, the seller has no obligation to repair defects found during the buyer’s inspection. The property is being sold in its current condition, and the buyer accepts any faults unless repairs or credits are negotiated and agreed upon by both parties. The buyer can still ask for repairs or a price credit, but those are optional negotiations, not a mandatory seller duty. Disclosure of known defects, as required by law, remains the seller’s responsibility, but it doesn’t create an automatic repair obligation.
