Buy it either thru the PX and have it delivered feee there or buy yourself and have it shipped there.

He is very knowledgeable and seems genuinely concerned about delivering a quality product.

I would think if it is recorded against the property, it would need to be paid off at closing in order to deliver clear title to the new buyer.

Most of the larger firms I spoke with started at $25k, I don't believe they would have delivered any additional value in this deal.

That alone takes work, but the multiple moving parts does represent some risk - if your contractor bails or doesn't deliver, you're in a high-risk position while you scramble to find a decent replacement from a distance while your vacancy is clock tick tick ticking away.

Hi JamieJon, Johnny, and Lucia are totally on point about the DFW marketI'm not as astute as they are, but I'm out here everyday making deals, some fall through, and others are signed sealed and delivered.

Then we got a notice to vacate the premises which the building inspector delivered personally to my tenants.

My goal is to have materials delivered and contractors ready the day of closing/like a 50m race :-) (like running).
