As mentioned above, the builder is just going to complete any necessary corrective work as part of their pre-close punchlist.Here is an exact quote from one of my builders (49-unit townhome project) from a couple of weeks ago on the topic of third-party inspections:"•We will solve items that fall under the category of our Fit and Finish Warranty or any life-safety issues •Cosmetic or "recommended" items from the inspector may not be considered and are subject to Builder review and discretion."

You could be below market to the "average" unit in the zip code but if you're in the glide path of the airport with jets are taking off every 5 minutes, the Taco Bell parking lot lights shine right in the windows, freeway exit is two houses away, a busy fire station is nearby with sirens all night long, etc then the price may still be too high.Are there any safety issues that could be helped with lights, cameras, etc?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a tool where I can filter properties based on a CoC minimum? 

I think you are asking if their top markets list is a good place to find new markets to invest in.As an avid AirDNA user I like their data and their tool in general. 

What tool/website should I use to do a comprehensive background check?

If there are any concerns with the property that are suspected to be causing a safety issue or potential damage to the property you can enter without notice.

Hi all! Has anyone used this site for screening? Or have any other recommendations?

Have you ever considered using your skills and industry knowledge to start your own fix and flip projects? What are some of the challenges or opportunities you see in making the transition from contractor to investor?

Balancing safety and practicality is key.

Most people will care more about their own objective and how you can help vs. hearing about our marketing plans, systems and tools.
