Thank you, and I look forward to meeting you at the viewing.Note how I reiterate the qualifying criteria as well as itemizing what the move-in costs will be.

And when I was doing aheroshome.org and doing 1 hour consultations to BP members for a donation to our Charity..

Some houses have so many decorations, misc. items around the house it is difficult to notice when things go missing over time.Hope this helps! 

Giving them a laundry list of items will typically just overwhelm them and create more confusion instead of giving them a smaller step process to get more confidence to get the ball rolling and then they can get into the weeds on their state when they get the contractors out there, have local bids come in, and dial in their plan. 

I look at every single item in the pro forma and imagine that it is complete BS, and see if I can challenge it.

Buyers are Liars"  And I guess the same can be said for sellers to when they do not divulge items they know. 

They're about $2K, but in-unit W/D is the most requested item I hear.4 burner gas top should be OK.

It's always important to have contingency reserves and having a healthy contingency line item that's capitalized can greatly reduce cash during life of loan.Loan Administration:Remember construction lenders release for completed work and the borrower has to navigate the process by which the work is completed in order to obtain reimbursement.

First you need to learn to separate the following:Maintenance: usually things related to wear & tear or tenant damage.Repairs: usually broken items like doors & windows, caused by tenant or nature.Capital Improvements: usually expensive things that wear out: hot water tanks, furnaces, roofs, etc.The seller is correct that Repairs & Capital Improvement items should not be a factor for awhile (ALWAYS get your own inspection to confirm).

They usually cherry-pick fire and safety related items from new editions of the building code that just can't wait, in their opinion.
