Just make sure stained concrete is properly sealed. 2.

I'm curious about properly adjusting the value of comparison properties to determine the After Repair Value for our subject properties.

BUYER GRANTS SELLER THE UNILATERAL RIGHT TO EXECUTE CANCELLATION INSTRUCTIONS IN THE EVENT THAT SELLER ELECTS TO CANCEL THE CLOSING AND THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

The buyer chooses the contractor and the lender vets the contractor: looks for the above stated information and also looks into whether there has been complaints against the lender.I was also told that a 3rd party vendor inspects the property and inspects the work to make certain the work is done properly before monies are distributed for the work completed.

My concern is the the "due on sale" clause being executed by lending institutions when using these methods.  

I do know that if you execute the lease you will own it, but I want it in my name if I am putting that much work into it.Give it a shot you never know!

Lack of proper maintenance2.

I personally would steer clear of Detroit proper but any outlying areas are going to cost you more than $25,000.

If I understand the quantification properly - we're looking at maybe a D+ property in a C neighborhood:The building is from 1925, The roof is leaking in spots, but by no means is it falling down. 

Real estate has always been a passion of mine, and I'm ready to embark on the execution portion of my venture.
