First time buying cash

[Ben Chapman]

I found a property for sale that meets my numbers. I plan on paying cash. It is an assignment contract so the seller isnt the owner. Is it relatively the same as a conventional purchase as far as being able to get an inspection and back out if things are revealed that werent necessarily disclosed? It's a duplex with 1 side currently rented and according to seller, the other side is rent ready. I told him I could close asap as long as an inspection didnt reveal the house was actually falling down.

Any advice would be appreciated!
