Committee debates adding explicit buyer walkthrough to contract

The committee considered whether to add an explicit buyer "walkthrough" right to paragraph 7A of the One‑to‑Four contract after brokers described recurring end‑of‑sale disputes in multiple Texas markets. Several brokers told the group that sellers sometimes deny buyers access for a final visual check before closing, producing last‑minute complaints and agent phone calls. One broker said, “I think an alert to the seller that the buyer may choose to have a walkthrough prior to closing at least puts the seller on notice that it may happen.”
