Selling A House

Question
In selling a house, is the seller responsible for a number of windows (both main and storm) that are cracked? Who is responsible for updating a house that has 60-amp service? And finally, is it possible for the buyer to ask a price reduction for a house with a roof that is seven to 10 years old and not in very good condition?

Answer
Right off the top of my head, I would say the cracked windows are the responsibility of the seller, so the buyer can take off their cost from the price of the house- I think. As for 60-amp service, there is nothing wrong with it even though it is a bit outdated, so I think the buyer is responsible. As for the roof, unless it is defective or really deteriorating, it is a part of the house that wears out with age, but does not need replacement for a while, so again I think the buyer is responsible. Maybe a fast talking lawyer could make a difference, but I would check with a real estate agent or other person who knows more about such things.
