You Realtor should be insistent of the repair prior to closing or just don't close. there are tons of homes out there for sale.
Someone can't "just don't close." As mentioned a few times, what does the purchase and sale contract state? If there was an inspection there has to be some language on what is required and when. If a buyer just backs out of a deal they could lose their deposit.
