So far, we have received this advise from appraisers in the Maple Heights area: 1) Attach all offers so the next appraiser can better understand the market value, 2) Provide a letter from the Maple Heights Building Department discussing the addition of the egress window making the bedroom conforming livable space, 3) provide comps for similar properties sold in the Maple Heights area (these do not have egress windows), and 4) create an itemized list of improvements and cost for renovations to the property.We are grateful to the Bigger Pockets community for their advice as well. 

The bottom line is that you should chat with an attorney about all of this and see what they advise.

I’m sure they aren’t advisable on larger projects but depending on the project size and complexity, they worked great for me. ~$650 for the study. 

Patricia,  Do you have a team in place in Baltimore that can help advise you?

Instead, I have established a donor advised fund (DAF) for charitable giving during and after my death. 

Thanks for any advise.....Gloria Vega

@Josh Cissell Thanks for your advise, I understand what you mean.

Then, if the amount is less than the asking price, advise you on the chances your offer may be accepted.

So my insurance broker says he cannot be added.My attorney advises I should maintain the previous insurance plus setup a new one under the LLC in FL who is the beneficiary of the Trust and then to add the Trust as additionally insured.But i would like to avoid double paying for insurance.Will you guys please advise on how to go about doing this?

He has no safety net so I don't think its wise to take the risk because if he did a deal, lost disability and then since hes brand new to REI lets say it takes a while until he gets his next deal I just want to help advise him best!
