I was a finance major in college. 

If not, contact a good attorney who can help you through the process before you deal with the buyer as there are usually required disclosures, whether you're working with an agent or not, that can get you in some hot water if you don't provide them before making an agreement with a buyer, and you'll need to have an accurate idea of fees involved to come up with a final price.  

A pro painter should be able to do them quickly and with a much nicer finish by using a fine finish paint sprayer (not a brush).You may consider getting a design consultation if you can find a good designer that regularly works with flippers.

I worry that they thought that, when I asked them to lower the price, I was implying that I would accept their bid as long as they agreed to the new price, rather than going and asking their competitor to match the new, lower price before making a final decision.Company B also spent a long time discussing details of the job over email with me over the course of a week or so.

There's usually an approval of plans, then sometimes they require a rough or framing inspection halfway through, and then a final inspection.

@Nick Vehr That seems fine - I'd consider pushing it to 20% if you can identify any concrete expenditures (water heater, furnace, roof, etc.) or if it's an older building, but otherwise that should be a fine estimate from what I can tell.
