I’ve had about 5 fights on that corner in 2 years.

Some of us in the industry are fighting to help with that for the limited partner, and hopefully that comes to fruition in the near future.  

The tenant finds out that the insurance company will be fighting this with their very deep pockets.  

Quote from @James Wise: I've never heard of KS York so I've got no dog in that fight.

Yeah they will spend thousands of dollars to fight $1000 claim.

My brother and I had to hire an attorney to fight for our share of the estate.

Its important to have a smart realtor that can help you through the process and fight on your behalf.

I just had to fight tooth and nail to close a VA condo purchase for a client with a POA that was actually fairly well run, relatively speaking.

By collapsing a segment of regional lenders, it becomes a consolidating event, because you the "evil genius's" of it all get to swop in wearing a hero's disguise, claim the victors conquest/rewards while staking you "must do it for the common good" and the sheeple applaud your consolidation vs fight it. 

And your Realtor would know more about what’s typical with new construction in your State, but I feel they should be fighting for your interests, and be the one having the conversation with the sales rep about a reasonable amount for the earnest money deposit, on your behalf.Glad you haven’t signed anything yet and hope you manage to come to terms that work for you.Keep us posted!
