@Jeff S.pretty sure Cozy.Co syndicates ads to a variety of websites, facilitates tenants paying online, etc.

You should be able to comp it out to see what it is worth, throw it on your local MLS and you and the other realtor will handle facilitating the transaction. 

The property manager is just a facilitator, even when S/he has authority to act independently.

This will likely facilitate the stack effect and make your problem even worse.

But they have contracted with you to facilitate your exchange so you have to follow their rules. 

Inform them you are doing an inspection and see if that will facilitate discussion with them. 

I’m facilitating some of that Comms but I’m having to trust the agent and the contractor to some degree.I know it’s far from ideal, it’s not the best way and I’ve definitely taken onboard your suggestions.

I've come up with the following set of questions to facilitate the discussion:1.

I am local for a while - boots on the ground - and can facilitate the deal step by step through aquisition, completion, and management. 

I imagine a CPA would add value via opportunity identification and facilitation (i.e. 1031 exchange, QOFs, advantageous strategy implementation during rehabs/improvements and putting a property into service, tax entity selection, etc) but I may be biased...Also, you'll want to ensure that your property was actually placed into service during 2019, and which of your costs are 2019 tax year deductions and which are improvements subject to capitalization.
