That being said, never be afraid to dispute an appraisal.

They do tend to take the guests side on most disputes, but just go in expect that and you'll avoid a lot of disappointment. 

At this stage, I've waited for a long time to get through the short sale/bank resolutions and just want to do the right thing and hopefully get something for all the time and effort thus far.Please let me know if you have any questions or if any additional information is needed...Many thanks!   

@Sirun Vartanyan and as I just commented on another thread, I think all of this volatility in the market created by OPEC/Russia oil dispute and corona virus will actually create upward price pressure as investors rush to security and certainty.

None disputed the payment amount other than a minor verbal negotiation. 

You will need an operating agreement or corporate resolution for most things, including buying, financing, selling. 

They also help resolve disputes between contractor and client, keep contractors on the timeline and provide regular updates on the project.Depending on your brokerage model, you may have to set up a separate company to do your project management piece.

In my case I invest where I live but I feel like I don’t know enough to be my own GC or to dispute a contractor when I feel the work is not on par with how it should be?

Regardless of their legal dispute with the current owner, they should have no legal right to possession of the unit after their lease expires.
