He texted me when he returned saying that there was a valuable item missing.

Note: Inspections are required for all work items that cost more than $5,000.  The property is a one-unit owner-occupied home.  The reimbursement is limited to the cost of materials or the cost of properly documented contract labor (sweat equity may not be reimbursed). )So if the ARV is  $120,000 , does this mean that you can ONLY borrow a MAX of $12,000  ( 10% of the  $120,000 ARV ) to use for the Materials to repair and renovate the Property..... and you do the Work yourself ....aka FREE Sweat Equity on your part ?

There are some items to consider when buying turnkey.

Being approved, being safe, getting items fixed, etc.Granite seems like overkill.

And sometimes we had to return after a tenant was in to do some items but they never minded as long as they got in the door. 

I have had one's come in like you said look at their one item and leave..

The side that has more information about the item to be negotiated and about the relevant market or industry has more power in the negotiations .
