When I was listing and selling property full time, I always advised the seller to get estimates and negotiate a credit to the buyer;  it avoids so much stress, lost time, etc.Of course it is not always possible, depending on the repair--the lender may refuse to close prior to a certain repair being made.But whenever possible, I'd recommend  to credit the buyer and let them deal with it. 

If the repairs are more than 10k, they will be discounted from the offer price.Operating Data: Numbers I'm using to come to Cash Flow and NOI, Seller provided utility expenses and Insurance costs.Note: the CapEx numbers are estimated from a spreadsheet on things that will need to be replaced in the next 5 years, I plan to sell in that time frame to reduce large CapEx expenses.
