@Alec Jacobs I have basic low/no fee business checking accounts.

Quote from @Devin James: In one of our development projects, the City staff asked us to remove 40 units from our concept plan.This wasn’t requested by the City Commission at a formal hearing, it was the opinion of the staff.Our original concept already proposed fewer units than the current zoning would have allowed.Here’s what erasing 40 units means:- 40 fewer homes for buyers- Over $1M in lost profit for our team- Fewer tax dollars and impact fees that could’ve benefited the City’s infrastructure & servicesWe gotta get betterEveryone wants more affordable housing, but not everyone wants to do what it takes to achieve it we never listen to the recommending bodies. we move for city approvals and work closely. the other thing we do is keep going back to the same groups over and over and over and over every month on the same agenda and make very small reductions like 2% or 4% and that reduces and beats them down eventually they accept what you want. it's just before beating a dead horse. we keep tabling until they give us something we all agree on then we go to vote. in our city in columbus we have to get recommendations but that's our strategy. we used to come out as aggressive as possible. we typically study developments in the area and keep it very similar in terms of density. we have a track record of very controversial projects and litigation and not taking no as an answer. after a year of that haha I can tell you it's not worth it. now we are more relationship based and buying the right kinds of plots of land. if the numbers don't work on the front end don't do the development. 

Also if you are selling, hopefully your agent has advised you but good practice to have a vacant unit to open the buyer pool to owner-occupied buyers/house hackers.

The PM was basically being rude and said “well you shouldn’t have broken the furnace anyway.”

Also, important to confirm they will be warrantable condos for end buyers otherwise it will be very difficult for end buyers to secure financing and thus purchase the units. 

With the new commission rules you can stay flexible with an offer of buyer agent commission, rather than having to commit to a certain percentage going to the buyer agent upfront. 

The property sat on the market for a month before an offer came in, but the buyer backed out at closing.

.- Space Coast Beaches - Condos - Buyer's market- Space Coast Beaches - SFHs - Neutral market- Viera / Suntree < $800k - SFHs - Seller's marketI thought this was interesting how drastic the difference can be within the same geographic area. 

But it is still just VERY basic. 

I 100% endorse adding in the escrows for taxes and insurance to set the buyer/borrower up for success.
