NaextBlock read

The visible issue may be creating buyer hesitation, but the discount appears materially larger than the estimated repair and risk buffer.

Negotiation angle

Use the visible issue to request price improvement, seller credit, or inspection-based concessions, but validate scope with contractors before relying on the spread.
