I work with Mark Callahan in particular.

Good morning BP, I found a nice double in a good neighborhood of Buffalo that keeps getting marked down since it was listed 3 months ago.

Thanks for the tip @Mark W.

Thanks for the encouragement @Wave Taylor, @Ronald Olivera, @Anthony Nici, @Mark Graffagnino, @Phil Earley & @Charlie Fitzgerald.  

The problem is that every time I turn a unit over, I have to completely paint the inside of the closet again, as the walls are scuffed and marked up.  

I would just take plenty of pictures to document the current condition and explain (in writing, perhaps an addendum to the lease) what you will consider beyond normal wear and tear, i.e. marks, gouges, broken door knobs due to excessive force, etc...I know as a tenant it would be hard to have a landlord say you're worried about their little "angels" but hopefully they can emphasize once they realize that you have been burned before.

Welcome Mark - BP is great.

Hey everyone just so you know I know Mark on here as a commercial lender so he is just cracking a joke on me............ : ) 

I'll disagree with @Mark Gallagher While I don't like debt in general, real estate debt is different in that it's secured by a real tangible asset.
