Mainly because home inspectors already have tools and systems for quickly generating thorough inspection reports to help you negotiate credits, concessions, and/or price reductions. 

Kind regards,MichelleIt has to do with this issue of GLA (gross living area) and how its calculated and included in the appraisal.

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).

You’re acting as the assignor, so once the assignment agreement is signed, the buyer takes on the financial responsibilities outlined in the PSA, including the EMD submission.

Do I draft the contract price for higher than the actual build price that would include our estimated profit (sell price) or would a separate agreement between the lot owner be sufficient enough that outlines the deal since we don't know the actual sell price until it goes to market?

At a bare bones minimum, the letter confirms the start/end dates of the lease, monthly rent, paid-through date, absence of any prepaid rent other than the current month, and security deposit amount.Better, it will include statements there are no unresolved claims or disputes or repair issues with the current landlord, and no verbal or written side agreements.Better yet, it will include a copy of the tenant's lease, and a confirmation the lease is a true and correct copy with no amendments.

Both things are happening.Buyer agent commission is still negotiated up front with sellers although there is the option not to compensate a buyer's agent - aka have the buyer pay their agent.We also tell buyer's agents to include their commission in the offer.
