My advice is to pass on this one if:-You are not 100% comfortable of the numbers independent of his-You do not have an understanding of your agreement together and his obligations are spelled out-Your agent has more skin in the game other than commissionsYou can always pass on this accepted bid and re bid when the property comes back on to give you more time to gather information.

Some people in my neightborhood got one contractor to throw that in for free.Everything above needs to be spelled out in the estimate they give you.

Yes, the title co. can tell you who traditionally pays what costs, and include that in the contract language so it all clear and spelled out up front.

He thinks that because he thinks he is Gandolf with magic spells and the like.I'm really not interested in his pitch to sell books, I deal in reality, and I don't get paid to sell books...

@Bryan Sowieja We all have biases but that doesn't mean you should spell them out in the application.

Could you please spell out the risks for me.

Vacancy spells death to cash flow.

Prior to 5-2-16 for the last 2-3 years my name and address was correct, perfectly fine and spelled correctly.

Not that they can't (With very few spelled out specific exceptions).
