Just a comment on CMBS:Unless you're going with a conduit who has a capped cost program, a CMBS deal can run up some pretty hefty due diligence costs - $30k-50k deposit due with a signed term sheet (majority is anticipated legal fees).

So this is happening here:  http://www.wweek.com/news/city/2018/05/08/portland...As a landlord who does her own repairs, this is terrifying to me. 

The tenant/buyer put $10k worth of repairs into the place.

This would allow me to make initial repairs without being strapped for cash.   

The basic formula is ARV - Needed repairs - 3-5k for assignment fee = offerexample $45,000 - $10,000(repairs) - $5,000 (fee) = $30,000(offer)Hope this helps

What about the Maytag Man for every little repair fee?

We have done inspections and everything is clean with both properties minus about $2k in repairs.

It leaves about $2,000 a year for repairs. 

My broker is telling me I can’t title/deed the house to my company and then sell it to myself and my fiancé after the repairs are done and put a mortgage under it. 

Regarding what information you should provide I would suggest the complete Street Address, photos of the interior and exterior, the ARV, Comps, and estimated repairs.
