Selling my house which was built in 1989. Breaker panel is as it was built and has been through a few owners including me for the past 13 years with no issues. Buyer wants me to have a licensed electrician correct this. What do you think?
I honestly could be.. It was on the market for less than 24hrs and I had two essentially full asking price offers..Are you prepared to have the buyer walk if you don't do it?
So what is wrong with muti neutrals on a single lug? As long as they are side by side I see no problem with the risk of a loose neutral, I also tend to overtorque in that situation.
That buyer wants something for nothing. You're not required to make a older house meet current codes.What do you think?

Let them walk. There will be many more in todays market.Are you prepared to have the buyer walk if you don't do it?
Cutting the wires to exact length like that is poor practice since it makes any rework difficult. I like to run them to the bottom of the box then back up so there is enough slack to move one anywhere. This also greatly simplifies the replacement of the whole panel, should that ever be necessary. It may look sloppy but there's a reason for it.That's a neatly wired panel too.
For cost service entry cable is usually aluminum the lack of noalox is more concerning.
