Finally a petition was passed around the neighborhood and delivered to the council rep.  

No because they are currently behind on rent and probably not going to pay any more, ask that the unit be delivered vacant if you really want the property.

If I repainted I'd be doing it to get the "wow" factor (and fresh-paint smell) of a completely repainted apartment, not because any walls are so bad currently that potential tenants would look at them and run.I no there's no one-size-fits-all answer, but generally speaking, which of these upgrades would deliver the biggest bang for the buck?

Yes, protected buyer list, or protection clause.I found for CA: a broker must deliver to the seller the list of protected buyers no later than the end of the listing period or any extension or cancellation.It does not talk about length though.

That office will forward to your NY SoS to deliver to the address you have on file in that state.Adjust your business model accordingly.

Where it breaks down in my mind, however, is that a bathroom sink is designed to deliver water to said sink.

And I still download the weekly podcast before lacing up my running shoes...it never fails to deliver a new idea or strategy that builds on my current knowledge base. 

I would call it a red flag if they resist giving you everything you request for your DD document list quite quickly, their speed and thoroughness in response to that shows their willingness to sell imho.When you schedule your inspection you want all your professionals there at the same time to go through a single time, contractor, inspector, and any specialists you think you might need like roofer, engineer, etc.Also don’t feel pressured to make your DD and inspection time as limited as is common in SFR, give yourself 2-3 months at least, again, from when they deliver the docs you request.Besides financial DD you want to do physical DD not just on the property via inspections but visiting the area during day and night, weekdays and weekends, to ensure you have a feel for everything that’s happening at different times all the way around the block.

They paid that requested amount for rent and you only delivered X & Y.

I presume you are buying as you need and then those units are being delivered and then installed, as needed when needed... the supply chain would be most important for me.
