Residential Buyer's Inspection Notice and Seller's Response

10 · What this form is

How the buyer raises inspection items and the seller responds

The Residential Buyer's Inspection Notice and Seller's Response, or BINSR, is the form used in an Arizona residential transaction after the buyer's inspections, through which the buyer communicates inspection items they disapprove of or want addressed and the seller responds. It is the channel for the post-inspection conversation.

11 · When it commonly arises

During the inspection and due diligence period

This form commonly arises during the inspection and due diligence period of a resale purchase contract, after the buyer's inspections are complete and the buyer has items they want to address.

12 · General subjects it covers

The notice, the response, and the resulting agreement, at a high level

At a high level, the form addresses the buyer's notice of items from inspections, the seller's response options, and the resulting agreement or resolution between the parties. Nothing on this page should be read as a universal deadline or a mandated repair obligation; specific timeframes and outcomes are set by the contract and the parties' agreements. The exact structure is set in the document itself.
