@Eric Bilderback I Don't know any 'rules of thumb' for this situation, but I would be most concerned about when the electrical and plumbing were redone, check the foundation, hvac systems and roof.  

I'm in the middle of demo and getting major system repair quotes.

There are some drainage issues that need to be addresses with the french drainage system that is installed in the concrete patio out back. 

Liz has extensive knowledge in financing, appraising, construction, marketing as well as her greatest attribute is creating systems to maximize time, quality and monetary constraints to ensure efficiencies on all levels.

Looking for low value cash deals or....would consider partnering with a wholesalePro(20+deals) to split profits if you teach me the paperwork and systems better.  

This includes understanding how to factor in any costs related to the components of the plumbing system which are not easily visable during a walk through, including, but not limited to, underground and outside components of the plumbing system.

there's always a lot to learn here. 

I love it though Sue the Bastard   knew jerk reaction to a situation that just needs a little more negotiation's.I have personally stopped escrows in this exact situation money in everyone signed but not recorded or dispersed.. one call with my instructions to stop it is all it took... if the lawyer or closing attorney did not head that and went ahead and recorded then you have cause for action.but anyone who knows anything about the legal system knows court battles take years and a lot of money.. these guys will work it out...

I am now well invested in Stockton, have build up some expertise and have my systems in place and am in the process of consolidating here.

Most use the airbnb or vrbo built in reservation/payment system.
