Should a French real estate seller do the diagnostics after they get an offer?

French real estate buyer need to know French real estate buyers do not like surprises.

If the buyer makes an offer in price on your property without seeing the diagnostics the buyer may not sign his offer once he sees the diagnostics and finds out unexpected repairs.

Many diagostic reports show items French property buyers were not aware of, for example, electrical work that needs to be done.

The buyer once they see work needs to be done most likely will want to pay less.

Recall the buyer needs to see the diagnostics before signing the ‘compromise de vente’ so it is best the seller offers to the buyer as soon as possible and as a buyer you see the reports rapidly so you do not waste your time looking at a property that may need more work than you want to do.
