In competitive markets where two offers are presented to the seller, the one with 20 percent down looks better than one with a smaller down payment. But sellers still tend to drift toward someone with a larger down payment.

Unless the contract says 'as is' everything is up for negation. Even then, the buyer usually still has the right to ask for repairs or back out of the contract.
