Inspection Response & Repair Request

A clear, prioritized repair request that doesn't kill the deal.

When to use it
Use after the inspection report comes back and your buyer wants concessions or repairs. Helps you prioritize what to actually ask for vs. let go.

The prompt

Help me draft a prioritized repair request to send to the listing agent after an inspection. Context: - Property: {Property address} - Buyer name: {Buyer name} - Contract price: {Contract price} - Buyer's risk tolerance (low / medium / high): {Buyer risk tolerance} - Inspection findings (paste the summary): {Inspection findings (paste summary)} - What the buyer cares most about fixing: {Buyer's top priority} - What I think is reasonable to walk away from: {What you'd drop} - My name: {Your name} - Listing agent name: {Listing agent first name} Deliverables: 1. A prioritized list of 3 repair / credit asks — labeled MUST / SHOULD / NICE 2. For each ask, a 1-sentence reason grounded in the report (no vague 'safety concerns') 3. A short email to the listing agent (max 180 words) presenting the asks as a credit at closing first, then repairs as a fallback 4. One line I should NOT include in the email (something the buyer wants me to say but that would weaken our position) Tone: factual, no exclamation marks, no 'demand' language. We are negotiating, not threatening to walk.
Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.

Pro tips

  • ALWAYS lead with credit at closing, not repairs — sellers prefer to write a check than coordinate vendors.
  • Drop your weakest ask before sending — asking for everything signals inexperience.
  • If the seller pushes back on the credit, then offer to swap to a home warranty as a face-saver.
