@Rob Hakes hope there has been some resolution on this so far. 

One of the major reasons rehabs fail is disputes about the scope of work and extras with the owner. 

You don't want to have to get involved in roommate disputes and possible room vacancies that might arise. 

Also, it should be called "first year cash-flow", as you can raise rents, get better priced insurance, dispute taxes, rehab the property to lower future repairs and capex, negotiate property management fees as you bring more properties onboard, improve processes and marketing to lower vacancy expense, refi when rates decrease, etc...

Go ahead and dispute what I have to say.  

Well here anyway, your dispute is no longer about the actual sale (just about who gets the $10k EM) so the property can be sold to anyone else....I’ve had to do it before as a seller when the buyer walked at the closing table. 

I wish you the best and hope to read your resolution soon.

Normally I would say dispute the appraisal but if comps support the apppraisal then the appraisal s accurate.  

What do you do to ensure that the tenant is responsible for security deposit disputes since that is the largest reason for owner lawsuitsHow familiar are you with the newly changed laws that can affect you the owner if they are not used correctly?.

20 days after the fact and we have been disputing this since 08/10, with no update, no INVGESTIGATION, no PROOF.
