I may have used more colorful language than that, just to drive the point home.

I'm looking to connect with anyone with experience in ghost kitchens (dark kitchens, mobile kitchens, etc.).

I would offer to provide the paint just to make sure the color is right but repair/maintain includes paint.

On our primary we were able to get in with him before he had even started building so we had the chance to make some custom choices (floors, door styles, countertops, appliances, light fixtures, paint colors) basically anything he would let us choose we did, and it got rolled into the price which didn't really increase it much and where we could, we would purchase items and just have them do the install (which they were going to do anyway so no extra labor).  

I would see the loc as another layer of protection in My overall protection skin such as insurance and maybe even umbrella insurance.Now let's take another somewhere you.

Have Thick skin and Good Luck!

The risk of @Brandon Turner or David Greene getting colorful is certainly of lower than of the morning DJs, plus he might learn something.

@Frederick Peregrino I would suggest light colored finishes so that the home shows bright. 

The purpose of the earnest money, or one of the purposes, is to secure your interest in the property, showing the seller that you've got skin in the game and something at stake, and therefore they will not continue showing the property or entertain other offers while you are doing your due diligence and preparing for closing.

The lender wants to know the dark value is higher than the mortgage balance at end of primary lease term.This is why cap rate is around 9 cap.
