I never go into a deal planning on asking for seller credits or a price reduction after we come under contract, but if I ever find something noteworthy that wasn't disclosed, or if couldn't have been found on initial walkthrough (i.e. broken sewer line, bad HVAC if you turn the power on and test it, etc.).

Conversely if the employee mix was spread out more equally with businesses and one had a reduction on workforce or went out it would tend to be a downward small blip versus a large one.

I am not sure you can get an stc or nrc (noise reduction coefficient) rating on glass but that is the question I would ask. 

A lot of people are predicting rates to be back in the 5s in the next 12 months...and it will be very interesting to see what happens to home prices since that would drive more buyers again.I know the last few deals I got under contract with my clients last week, we have seen anywhere from 1-3% in concessions and price reductions, so very strong buyers market since there is not a lot of buyers out there...I know I personally just bought with the thought process that as rates pull back, the home prices will go up with more buyers.

Estimating equity values other than principal reduction is speculation, you can't hold that until you sell or refi it which will then change that matrix.The question is more to the present value of an annuity stream on a lower monthly basis or that of lump sums being received over time or a combination of both.

They might also be able to negotiate price reductions based on the quotes that they receive back. 

If an attorney gives you the green light to move forward on this deal, aim to get a price reduction or credit that gives you some cushion should the eviction process go longer than expected.All the best!

@Shuwei Wang - Ask for a seller credit or reduction in the purchase price for the cost of repairs.

We like condos because of the reduction of CAPEX and Maintenance items, but the versatility of SFH or multifamily also has its advantages.
