For instance having a local and trusted GC come in and discuss how to put together a scope of work and present it to them, having a local accountant come in and discuss how to keep your books so that it makes their job much smoother and so that they can maximize your returns, etc.Discuss local trends that we see.

For instance, I like driving for dollars and tax liens lists.  

For instance, the lady complaining about fireworks.  

For instance if you fired a plumber that pulled the original permit, then hire another one, the permit is still valid.

A few of the PPMs I reviewed had excessively high fees, in one instance wiping out any potential appreciation on the future sale of a property as a fee collected upon sale.  

For instance offer the 3K that becomes non refundable after 11 days (7 days inspection, 2 days to review results and 2 days to negotiate repairs.

For instance:1) Lead based paint form signed by buyer2) PCD signed by buyer3) All pages of offer initialed4) Cash contingency form signed (if cash)5) Inspection form signed6) a myriad of other forms based on where it is and what.I know that people say "agents are required by law to present any and all offers" and while true".

For instance, a common data point we see absent from bid data for NPLs is foreclosure start and milestones.
