Note: If the HVAC system is more than 12-15 years old, you may want to offer to split the cost with the seller for a new system. The seller's half should be deducted from the selling price at the closing.
I would walk. Ac should be fixed and I wouldn't buy abhome with roaches. For all you know they had them the whole time and can't get rid of them. I know people who bought a new home and have been fighting infestation since closing.
