  You don’t have to, but it’s a good idea. Having an offer accepted generally signals your intention to piurchase.

    We must be in different countries because this is the standard order of events in the US. Especially in today’s market where houses rarely last a week but it was the same when I bought my condo in 2010

      I’m in the US. The shorter time has made it very difficult but even I was able to do it in 2021 when you were lucky to have a few days to decide.

        I’m honestly shocked because my mom worked for a real estate office when I was a kid and my cousin is my realtor now and I’ve never even heard of doing an inspection before an offer was accepted. Tour slots are half an hour and my condo inspection took an hour… This inspection took 4. Not to mention both inspections cost several hundred dollars each.

        We’re definitely talking about the same thing, right? I’m not talking about inspecting the home yourself (that’s the tour), I mean hiring a professional home inspector to create a report.
