At this point we are hoping that it appraises for the post renovations price but if it doesn’t my realtor and I go back to the negotiation table to lower the sale price.

At the closing table, the seller (A) completes the transaction with the Cash buyer (C).

My passion for hitting the books and doing the dirty work is what I bring to the table and my potential partner has the ability to bring the capital. 

The door key was on the table, and the front door was unlocked.

The majority of value that a realtor brings to the table is hand holding, problem solving and emotional counseling.

They're also asking questions like, "How likely is this buyer actually to make it to the closing table?"

We'd both be bringing a stable income/job to the table, he'd bring most of the down payment, and I have the homeowner "experience" and am more than dangerous with a good toolbelt. 

We all have something to bring to the table but a 3rd party PM can take some of those responsibilities away.

Its against my core values to evict people who need a roof over their head when they are already struggling just to put food on the table.

On 10,000sf I would assume soft costs of $15-20/SF and hard costs of $150-$200/SF (depending on where you are at) so best case you are looking at an all in cost of $2.2M so you would need to bring about $700k to the table.
