An inspection contingency is an addendum to a contract that gives buyers the right to have a professional house inspector or other third party examine the property within a certain period of time after the agreement to purchase has been signed.
Contingency and other clauses determine what action may be taken whether a home fails inspection, damage is found that was not in the home when the home was first viewed, or the seller delays the closing date.
