Hey everyone!
I’m asking for a friend who is in the final process of buying a boat. He has just got the results back for the transmission oil sample and the mechanic recommended a rebuild/replacement. He wants to move forward with the purchase and do the required repair however wants to re-negotiate the purchase price a little. What would be a fair offer to offset the cost of the repair. I don’t know the price but would guess in around the 5K mark. It’s a 30 year old boat (34’ Catalina sailboat) so asking the seller to cover the entire cost may not be realistic. Would 60% be in the realm of fair? Thanks for your input on this
