I would try to hire a contractor and walkthrough with them to get an estimate or get a more experienced house flipper to help you. 

It seems like something that should be covered in the tenant-landlord laws or something, but it’s not explicit so I just want to confirm without hiring an attorney for such a simple question haha

Also, I recommend hiring professional photographer to take professional photos of your unit.

What if the seller hired a realtor?

Hello Jay, It really depends on who is doing the work, and what the costs involved are.Are you hiring someone to do this work?

Which means as a lender, I’ll probably charge you more on application fee since I would have to hire someone to search thru records and consolidate it. 

I've already hired a property manager that takes 8%.

Finishing school: College can be used as a marketing tool when getting hired as an agent.

If you self manage, the cash flow goes to $410 and 7% COC but most investors recommend buying with the option to hire management.Personally, I would want it under $250,000 but that might not be possible in this market.I hope that helps.

When you get hired, your firm will likely foot the bill.
