He is open to offer that’s just what he is starting at and these contractors also asking rip off numbers  

The idea that seller agents might not offer commissions to buyer agents anymore could change how properties are marketed big time.

Ideally we need the IRS to approve exemption first in order for us to include the "withholding" amount to the replacement property offer price?

Is there anything I should know before I just don't offer renewal of the lease? 

@Tyler Henkel I will DM you the companies who are currently offering the best options. 

I keep a little 7.5 cu ft fridge and offer to have my handy man deliver it the same day a tenant reports a fridge out. https://www.amazon.com/RCA-RFR725-Apartment-Refrigerator-Sta...I have our appliance guy out if it's a newer appliance or I go appliance shopping if it older than 7-8 years old.If tenants want other additional compensation, I tell them that it's not my job as the landlord to protect them from every inconvenience; we will provided a compact fridge for temporary use on request and promptly schedule a repair and replacement and they should contact their renters insurance to determine if any additional benefits are available.

I am thinking of making an all-cash offer to purchase a SFR with existing fire damage in the kitchen at a price well below market value The property is in otherwise solid condition and in a great neighborhood.

Anything that needs a little renovation or TLC can offer an opportunity to pull cash out on the ARV.

I also am able to offer more to purchase because we have full control of terms.

Maybe offer the Agent a flat fee for helping if the Seller isn't willing since it's a FSBO.
