How can I make sure to do this the right way? 

My calculations are based on 2 sets of numbers - the numbers the seller has provided, and my own calculations accounting for 5% for vacancy, 5% for repair, 5% for capex, 10% for property management and actual costs for property tax/insurance.I am trying to decide if this deal is worth pursuing or if I should walk away due to the premium on the homes.

I find this vague.

We are trying correct cat odors and damage unfortunately. 4) do you provide the itemized list and then once they agree you get the money to them or can this be done in one step and not be up for negotiation or tenant approval?

I hope this is the right category for this post.  

I know this a tough time for a lot people, post hurricane disaster but I can’t help to think is this a buying opportunity in those areas?

The tax advantages of buying/holding gas stations are pretty great.Many of the components of gas stations including pumps, tanks, external parking areas, and other equipment are classified as either 5 or 15 year property so you can bonus depreciate a lot of it (minus the land value) and get significant deductions in year 1.With the current bonus depreciation rate at 60%, a $1 million gas station acquisition could still lead to $100K+ in year 1 deductions depending on the specifics of your deal.

I had never used this company before, so I went to the original company that priced $8750.09 and asked them to price match.

But definitely lots of options in this area, depending on the specifics on what you're looking for.
