We typically estimate standard costs for these items but get them done much cheaper with our own crew.

For months, this was what we were following but of course when dealing with me I never make people wait so long and I pay as soon as I am able, as soon as the line item funds drop I usually send a wire or zell payment.

I also like to use incidental insurance as an additional layer such as Waivo to cover items.

I don't think you need to take a picture of each wall, but of each room and each noteworthy item that was damaged is really helpful. 

I have also added line items for common area monetering and additional appliances.

If you can hold on till first part of January the showings and everything else should pickup.This would be my action items: 1. hire a new agent that can sell the place, and get you numbers are rent and selling and sell the place. 2. be honest on the numbers you can get on an ARV so that you can sell it 3. start to get the conversation started with a couple lenders on what these numbers on refi would look like for you and this property 4. my suggestion would be to refi/rent before selling at a loss because if numbers work you can hold for a couple years then sell, but this is dependent on your cash position and liquidity of your situation.
