I have a property in Florida where the HOA is responsible for maintenance and repair of all parts of the building outside of my unit walls, including the roof.

Check vacancy rates, repair costs, ARVs, etc.

Minor repairs with a possible remodel in the future.

Now I would make sure that the title company holds the deposit not the seller, I as seller prefer to be paid the deposit but I am OK with a title company holding it.My biggest concern would be that, as said above, the numbers they give you may not be real numbers, You need to be able to evaluate the property on your own and not trust the numbers they give you for repairs and resale value, rents, expenses etc.
