I got to think this is not their first attempt, they have done some homework.

Always do they math yourself too, and question anything that you see differently.

Failing to identify these differences will skew your analysis as valuation is not strictly a math formula of square footage costs and adjusting for amenities.These influences will be magnified as you move further away from the subject property.

Do your homework before you hire anyone.

Yes, the math works.

Hey Paul,You are really on top of your game and have done your homework.

If parents follow the child's progress, check his homework, and encourage good grades, the American schools are some of the best in the world.

But do the math and it can still work out and pay off extremely well in a certain rare situations with very low balances on the first mortgage.

A minor math error?

Now, they are more willing to work with you.My advice is to calculate the max amount you are willing to pay for this property (make sure you did your homework) and then counter or don't counter accordingly.
