My question is if this is how wholesalers normally operate (Quick decision to sign a contract, no inspection, couldn't answer if bad plumbing, was tenant really leaving?) 

Is this standard language on a normal lease agreement in Cleveland is will this language have to be added to lease?

What is normal in this situation, as I need to level set my expectations?

They come up with a number for cosmetic work, another for a light rehab, another for a "normal" rehab, and another for a "major" rehab. 

We closed 4 properties normal sale and a couple on Hubzu but never worked with a wholesaler.

I didn't want to fall into the normalization like every other college student who throws thousands of dollars down the drain because of rent.

(Columbus Ohio) .. interestingly I have also noticed rentals sitting on the market for longer than normal.

Hello All, I am working on refinancing my own primary residence and owning my rentals in a multi-member LLC seems to be affecting my ability to "add back" the depreciation that this can normally be a done with when held personally. 3 lenders have told me this.

Granted this means waking up early and shoveling/salting but could be a way to save some money over the winter season.

I am just asking for conversation purposes,  I do not normally contact previous landlords although I do ask them where they are currently living as part of my screening questions.
