@Adriana Collado Hudak - As the comments illustrate, there is no "one size fits all" answer to this question. 

WEst coast  OR WA AZ NV CA etc is all cash on the barrel head there are no deposits and no over bids.. winning bidder presents the cashiers check and they have won the deal on the spot.

If you are flipping to sell, it may be best to present the house with an open airy feel that is ripe with potential.Kitchen finishes: Our primary home was a flip with white cabinets and black finishes.

The biggest lesson I learned is that there is nor time like the present.

I am not looking to waive the inspection but what other options can I present that people have used which makes the offer competitive.

Lots of great advice here @Lance Turner.I would second @Bruce Woodruff's comment about making sure the LT renter understands that you will have a bunch of transient guests coming and going.

Yep @Nate Marshall, see my new comment here.

Sophisticated Lenders can and do structure these with many safegaurds but thats not what you are seeing in the Gator world and the gap funding and loans being presented to new lenders..
