OK, did the buyer call off the deal because of the inspection? Then it's a done deal. The buyer might have had cold feet anyway and just used the inspection report as an excuse to back out. This inspection has NOTHING to do with future prospective buyers, because no inspector is going to let someone see his report for free, although the buyer's agent might be aware of the report. YOUR agent has no business disclosing the report.
Now, that's not to say you should do nothing. Call the inspector up and ask for clarification on the report. He should be more than willing to discuss any of the items on the report. It's quite possible he saw a real problem that needs to be corrected.
I have a fairly low opinion of home inspectors. We paid for an inspection of our home before we bought it, and it was pretty much worthless. The inspector made no mention of the poor roof condition and rotting fascia boards, even though they were clearly visible and I pointed them out to him. It seems that real estate agents encourage inspections, probably to deflect blame from themselves if the buyer finds problems.
