They need to set the stage prior to the home inspection to let the buyers know what to expect and what will be a deal breaker and what won't be. This can be difficult for some agents, but I think in the end will mean the difference between a deal falling apart and one that get's to the table.

If the home had a old roof on it and the buyer knew about it when he or she wrote the offer then they should not come back after the inspection and ask for a reduced price as they some times want to do. The inspection is for gathering new information so the buyer can make a sound decision and know what they are getting into. I explain the instpection process carefully to buyers as all agents do.
