We tried to connect with a property manager and realtor in Kansas City, MO, but the property manager really dropped the ball.

Thanks @Michael BowmanI will see what I can work out with the sellers to get the ball rolling!

I'd say I'm an investor friendly realtor.Here's what I do personally.Find homes, visit them to get a ball park repair cost.

Obviously it probably won't be that accurate, but probably gets you in the ball park.

When it comes to buying properties with the LLC, that's a whole new ball game and it starts making sense when you are doing multiple deals per month.

Estimates are another ball game altogether!

If that $6.5K makes the deal a loser then you have to talk with the seller and point out that isn't a closing cost like a tax stamp or recording costs or anything along those lines and see if they will still play ball. 

I think it was intentional to be honest, the seller was a real slime ball.

I'm sorry that life has thrown you these curve balls right now and I'm glad you're here looking to make an improvement on it. 

Not my first choice of areas, but we wanted to get the ball rolling as we've been actively looking since November.
