I have found a few deals that are cash flow neutral.

So need to be neutral or positive. 

I currently own a condo in West Chester, PA that has been a rental since July 2013 and is cash flow neutral at this point.

The goal here is to have a neutral party who will suggest the fairest proposal so that both parties will agree.

They are a neutral party to handle funds and protect both sides.4) If its a pretty clear-cut deal (i.e. buyer/seller collegial and numbers.condition/pricing not an issue), I'd be comfortable going broker-less.So, barring an agreement, why use a broker? 

I'm not sure if I should proceed with doing a formal inspection (wondering if it's hard to ask opinions of family members and would be better to have a neutral party walk it) or what.

Or is it an absolute sin to pick up something  that isn't at least cash flow neutral? 

They don't have that hotel look and offer a neutral, ready-to-go location for folks to work in.

I plan to repaint all of my rooms to a neutral color.My concern is, would I regain the money put into installing the floors plus some?

Depending on the relationship with the client, I will sometimes have them sign our state disclosures having me as "neutral" which has certain requirements.
