i have found some great agents out there.i've had a broker who was representing the seller tell me "I cant in good conscious let you buy this property without a phase one study." he was representing the seller that i wanted to buy the property from!

So what does your sub conscious believe, I don't find deals!

But many companies and business persons made the conscious decision to go the other way and be responsible for the performance of each of those areas.  

However I do know that industry uses dangerous and environmentally problematic chemicals.I would be VERY concerned with inheriting an expensive environmental liability problem created by  the previous ownership.If I were buying this kind of business its something I would investigate carefully and probably have an outside expert involved.

Perhaps if I did any real volume I'd stop going the extra mile...or not...I think that investors don't just care about return, they do business with people, and they watch those people and judge those people and I'm conscious of how I want to be judged by them.That said, I did have one house where after clearing it out the former owner's daughter showed up about a week into the project to pick up dad...whoops.

You should plan to review all the owner's financial statements, review the rent rolls, walk every unit, audit every lease, have contractors inspect the mechanical systems, roofs, create a business plan, review title, review environmental reports, shop all the comps, etcDo you have financing already lined up?

I work at a tourist attraction and environmental organization in FL which happens to be located right smack dab in the middle of a residential area of the city.

. - Leave untouched as much of the remaining land as possible - both for a greater feeling of privacy and exclusivity for the resort guests and owners, as well as for environmentally responsible development.Pulling all of the expense figures out of thin air, I would pay 125mil for the property.The main concern for due diligence would be environmental contamination from previous activity - both military and research facilities.
