Well no, but I'm curious what the FTC's studies of that were. There are plenty of reviews of OpenDoor (check Reddit) where reviewers stated they just needed to clean out their house. I'm guessing OpenDoor has a certain standard for agreeing to buy a home, and some homes they ask to do repairs would otherwise have been turned away.

>> I'm guessing OpenDoor has a certain standard for agreeing to buy a home, and some homes they ask to do repairs would otherwise have been turned away.

This seems fair to me, there is no guarantee that when selling a home on the market, buyers wont similarly ask for repairs or dollar concessions for repairs.

Given that two different houses owned by OpenDoor that I looked at smelled of cat pee, I'm not really sure what standards they had.
