I'm curious, how did you decide that an LLC was right for your business model and did you use a local attorney and CPA that you would recommend?

There are items missing and damages to replace the front door, amongst other things like blood in the hardwood floors, etc. - should I file a claim?

If you go from SFR to apartments, you won't think to check insulation and firewalls as a due diligence item.

I know if he takes me to court I am covered as the unopened certified letter contains a check for refund and a itemized list of deductions.

Also, spot any big ticket items (HVAC, appliances, cabinets, bathroom stuff, etc) that may need replacing or repairing. 

It gives you the opportunity to better plan and manage your ongoing capital expense line items and make better decisions.And just for a third thought here, would you rather have a report on a property from someone whose client base is usually word of mouth from other sellers or listing agents, "Oh this guy is great, he helps me close deals."

NOw with higher end assets or stronger SFR areas  Like were you live.. this appreciation scale may work.. but in most low end areas ( were you can buy sub 50k homes) there just is no appreciation and your model is just wishful thinking.

It has a itemization breakdown of the lot and home building costs.As a long time NB resident and a Mater Dei family we've had friends and our kids classmates in the area of your lot.

However, if I had  done a thorough background check (housing, income, credit, legal) and it were only one item in question and it did not match up with the other background information I had collected, then I would question the validity of the outlier report. 

You can also find items like vanities, cabinets, and toilets.
