The Consultant must inspect the Property and prepare the Work Write-Up and Cost Estimate.The Work Write-Up refers to the report prepared by a 203(k) Consultant that identifies each Work Item to be performed and the specifications for completion of the repair. 

But to be honest, it takes about 10 minutes for an agent to write an offer, especially if you identified the property and know what price you want to offer at.

You only have 45 days from the date of close to identify up to 3 different properties that you will exchange into.
