I think for now beyond the question above I am more interested in the standard electric baseboard or wall mount systems you speak off. 

If a non REO, place a clause about utilities being turned on in the contract, affecting your time lines if it is not.When utilities will not be turned on, you need a heavy generator, air pressure test plumbing, etc.

I felt some pressure since my apartment lease was expiring and I didn’t want to get something off MLS because there isn’t anything within walking distance to downtown in my price range.

Cheap money and high demand have put pressure on CAP rates.

The loan is based on a 30 year term and todays rates around 5% to 6% but no pressure to pay to off, you could keep it over 30 years or sell and pay off the loan, all with no pre payment penalty.

If they refuse, try filing a complaint with the state commission and that may be enough pressure for them to let you go.If that doesn't work, wait out the three months, terminate, and then start a new lease with the tenant under the new property manager.Here's the deal: once you terminate with the current manager they won't have any money to take from you.

This could let you go under contract with him but relieve the pressure of having to sell your property too quickly.If he is considering his own 1031 exchange then you can also benefit by being his best friend and giving him a flexible closing date for your purchase/his sale that starts his 1031 exchange. 

I will have a property under contract soon(seller countered and we will most likely accept the counter) and now there is this massive pressure to find a hire a great GC.
