Hi all!

I've put on offer on a house that passed in at auction with no bids.

I've said I want to do the usual building & pest, and the vendors have come back basically asking why? And that the house is priced low, and that they will do B&P and make the report available to me.

Is it just me, or does this scream shady & that they are trying to hide something that is potentially wrong?

What other reason would they have for not wanting me to do my own building and pest with my own independent contractor selected by me?

I have not bought a house in almost 20 years.
