My accountant will most likely file an extension for our partnership this year but I have W-2 income I'd like to file to get my refund back so not sure if I should file on my own and amend later if that's an option.  

All being said, it sounds like the seller has amended to address concerns and repair the items requested, therefore, they are contractually obligated to uphold their agreement.

You can decide if you want to amend the record later.7.

If you have time on your inspection deadline you can also throw out an Amendment to the Offer giving other options for the seller to consider (seller credit, lower price, more time for further repair bids, etc) if you do want the property if these items are addressed (also assuming the seller didn't disclose any of these items to you, although an old roof is usually pretty obvious and just worked into the offer price up front).It is confusing for a plumber to offer no repair solution (is it a broken sewer main outside of the house that company doesn't deal with, etc) so sounds like that may need more getting looked into. 

I just might borrow that idea.If you are not Rinehart Property Managment, then best to amend the lease agreement with the signature of all parties to clarify how rent would be paid and received.Next step...

Like most things in this city, it was all underregulated, now will be overregulated, and in a few months to a year will be either be loosely enforced and/or revisited and amended.  

She's now sending amended versions of both back to me to sign and send to the state and IRS for about $6800 in additional refund.The short answer is even with only one rental, you may be saving $300-500 by doing it yourself while missing out on thousands in additional tax benefits.

Allow your buyer to go direct with the seller and on then either on the contract or on an amendment (or on an email with the seller and the closing team) you add your fee. 

Many municipalities sued and they settled on; if you have a law on the books already you can keep it, but you cannot add one if you do not already have one nor can you amend the current law. 

@Jessie NgI'm not going to advise you on the order of events here, but to echo what @Nathan G. said, you need a contract / lease amendment to cover this that you both sign.
