The PM presented us with another "bundle" of keys ... we then had 20 different keys for a 6-unit building.Needless to say, we now have eight (one for each unit, one for the mechanical room and a master) different keys.

If the owner doesn’t pay, there are mechanisms in place.

It's up to the GC to walk with heating/mechanical subcontractor to establish the best location in mech. space and orientation for his ducts/piping. 

There are no pending asssessments, plus the roof and mechanicals are all new in the last few years.Purchase: $200kValue as is: $215kRehab: $30k, gets me an updated kitchen, updated 2 bathrooms, carpet, and other minor finishes.

So most of the major mechanical items are done.

What incentives do you offer to have them take care of the mechanics of finding, renovating, renovating, staging and reselling your flips? 

In an initial analysis I'd like to see that low-end number a little higher: at least 8%, but if you've got a place you think will have low vacancy, in a good neighborhood, with recent updates and newer mechanicals, it can work. 

Should i withdraw my offer to prevent it from being used as a fishing mechanism by the realtor? 

I don't care what the agent says, mechanical stuff breaks, sewer lines clog, and the agent is usually long gone about 45 seconds after they cash their commission check.   

At the end of the day I have to remember that true leverage in RE sales is in having an emphasis on acquiring listings and not merely in attracting buyer leads.
