@Kim Newman KanneyKim - There are many financial planners / advisors that are not worth their weight in salt and are a detriment to my industry as a whole...

You can give them 25% reduction in price as a credit.

The inspector will give you a detailed report worth its weight if they find something you may overlook.

Self Management is becoming a bit cumbersome....so I am trying to weight out some options. 

Smaller markets allow for better returns, house hacking allows for a reduction in expenses which is a form of a return.

If they look bad I ask for a reduction in price.

  (1)  Cash Flow; (2) Principal reduction on mortgage each month; (3) Depreciation; and (4) Appreciation. 

If they're serious, then they'll need to agree to a drastic price reduction for someone else to buy their problems.Otherwise, if they won't agree to any of these, or other options you come up with, then THEY WILL FORCE YOU to terminate your listing agreement.Good luck:)

You can begin by weighting factors of each property condition to a whole rather than individually.

My new tenant has offered to clean up snow on the sidewalks, parking lot driveways during the snow season for a reduction in rent.
