My question is, does it matter when I submit my repairs/contingencies list?

Some times you lose them (especially when there are no contingency’s in the offer).  

Just wanted to have an average contingency number to fix this.

(Of course that would be contingent upon you becoming an agent at that brokerage and staying there for 6-12 months or something of that nature.)Other good questions to ask them would be what are their commission splits, a breakdown of ALL fees (monthly or annually), what their commission cap is, whether they provide leads for you and if the commission changes if they do, how often they provide training and what the topics of the trainings usually are, do they provide mentoring to help you work through deals, etc.Also, keep in mind that there are fees that the Broker has no control over such as MLS access, ($300/6 mo in PA), Realtor dues if the Broker is a member of the association of Realtors ($600/yr in PA), marketing materials, cost of yard signs, networking associations to network with investors, etc.

Waiving all finance/inspection/etc. contingencies.

I want to make the offer contingent on equity with the seller assisting with closing.

Figure in 10% for vacancy’s, 10% for capex, 10% for repairs, 10% contingency.

Sell or purchase with contingencies that require the buyer/seller to cooperate with your search for a suitable replacement or to wait for your sales before scheduling closing.   

I think the repair time is a minimal factor, or at max 30% of the weight of any deal.Brian Pulaski Yes, every state is different also the financial avenues used on the sell and buy, i know someone who buys a house with all cash (no lenders) and no contingency.

A concession like that for a contingency would get some notice.
