Don't forget to have his bank print a proof of funds (the account numbers and important things can be blocked or white-out but make sure it shows a balance that covers the purchase/offer price)Otherwise, that's pretty much it.

. $1400 for gas and a 6x6 inch block of concrete?!?!

I uncovered a multitude of issues (mainly cosmetic) but I have a couple of big ticket maintenance issues remaining - a slab drain leak (not supply) which was recently discovered and the home appears to need slight leveling (door jambs tight, small gap on brick outside).

The home is an 1940's concrete structure elevated off ground by concrete blocks.
