But if you are NOT out on that date I will have no choice but to process the 3-day notice which is going to impact you rental history so badly that you will never be able to rent a home again (make it sound scary), and because I am so nice, as long as you do exactly as agreed, AND you leave the property in good condition, I will refund your security deposit.b.

I know base utilities and impact fees in tampa are around 8-9k per lot.

Closing costs/legal fees are going to add up to about 10% on top of purchase price so important to work that into any analysis and will have major impact on short term (i.e. flipping would be harder here compared to US).

Usually 14 days is enough for us to market/sell/close on a transaction, though the size (dollars) of the transaction and the nature of the rehab certainly impact how quickly we can put an investor under contract.My buyer's list is very strong in certain parts of town and weaker in others.

This gives me time to work on pursuing the neighbor's property - maybe they won't sell anyway, but I just want to make sure I don't give away any major potential advantages.So the bottom line question is: would the tree have much of an impact on the desirability of the neighbor's property (specifically for developers), giving me any advantage to keep it there for now?  

To that end, we're getting into this business to make money responsibly, and to have a positive impact on the communities where we operate, and I'm looking for good, knowledgeable support in doing so.
