@Eve Favorse the first red flag was the nonrefundable EMD.Would not have even bothered making an offer with the condition.

With the current economic conditions, how are shifts in interest rates and inflation affecting your investment strategy in the U.S. real estate market?

Mailers is more-so a conditioning action. 

However, there are a few key conditions to consider:1.

You can add language such as "Inspection for information purposes only" or similar to convey that you won't expect repairs or cash concessions from the seller, but you do not want to lose the ability to walk away if you find that the house is in shoddy condition and you should not trust an inspection report that is not from an independent source and provided to you outside of the seller. 

“Because the $20,000 took so much away from their equity to put into another home, they decided not to sell,” she said.Another client of Chaname had difficulty selling his home because would-be buyers balked at paying $16,000 more for a home with HERO-financed air conditioning, duct work, water heater and insulation when similar homes were selling for less.The buyers argued they were paying for the improvements twice – through the higher valuation on the house and assumption of the loan.

I'd look for signs of arcing around those outlets.Other things I look for are how is the foundation, cracks in the walls (assuming lath and plaster), condition of the mechanicals, depending on what the house is built on, I may get a radon test done for the air and water (near me there is a lot of ledge, so radon is an issue in most homes). 

Property Inspections•Schedule property inspections to evaluate the current condition of each unit and ensure that you have a clear understanding of the properties you’ll be managing.

Some of my comments are: 1) Do you know the current condition of the units?

They are being sued by multiple neighbors for neglect (a broken refrigerator being left broken for weeks, black mold that was in apartments upon move in for new tenants, no heat or air conditioning in units for MONTHS) I suppose Home365 didn’t have an address set up for their bills either, we were actually getting their trash removal bill in our mailbox.
