More precisely, thanks for voicing my sub-conscious thoughts lol.

Per square foot can only be used for a gut rehab in the same neighborhood with no structural or other environmental anomalies...so almost never.

@Cody M.I would add a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment as a contingency to any offers on properties more susceptible to environmental issues (dry cleaners, gas stations, auto repair garages, etc.)

Don't worry about losing.That is likely not the only reason you are losing.We use this language for our clients, "Buyers agree to limit inspection repair requests to major structural, mechanical, plumbing, environmental, and safety issues."

I just don't like it when state starts to "worry" about adults making conscious decisions in their own lives.

Howerver, I have resrvations about how this will impact the community's living standards as the development will immediately border some neighborhoods and could bring unwanted environmental impacts and noise. 

Some are very fee conscious.  

However, challenges remain, particularly with balancing environmental concerns and ensuring that new developments cater to lower-income families.

You shouldn't need to send multiple reminders; tenants are generally aware of their rent due dates and are conscious of any delays.

Request a detailed list of documents and information from the seller, including financials, leases, contracts, capital expenditures, surveys, environmental reports, open permits, and the Certificate of Operations.2.Physical Property Due Diligence.
