The calculator is showing that after all of those items factored in I should still have a cashflow of $250+.  

Having even the impression that they had a bidder, who you turned off to look at your item is a quick way to get a bad rep and kicked out of future ones.

The most beneficial item here is that the interest rate (8% or so) was still was accruing on my original balance (while I'm borrowing my own money).  

If you ever wish to renegotiate these specific items, me and my investment team will be willing to hear your terms. 

I included before/after photos, rehab items and cost breakdown, original appraisal, etc.Contractor I used on Property #1 was pretty good and efficient with his time. 

I used Zapier before but it isn't so convenient to use for email into podio because a different email has to be created for each item in an app.

Both of these items going at once causes me to think that this stove could be fairly old.

I can tell you that when we can hand the home inspection to our contractors it makes it super easy for them to not only see the picture of the item needing repair but also the description.  

I purchase the items after checking for best prices and value at the big box stores, then the handyman picks it up and installs.

Still, I am considering sending the evidence with the itemized breakdown and their refund to try to show them they have no chance.I just don't know if this is a good idea.
