The reason being is that you want the pre-qual there, ready and complete so that when you find the deal you can simply call and take that next step.

Not every one I went to has been beneficial, but how would I know which one would benefit without simply making myself go?

@Eamonn McElroy I simply responded with my opinion to the initial question that I think they should file. 

Well simply addressing your comment flipping is not about cash flow, and you already pay a 25% tax when you flip its called a capital gains tax 

I don't see a lot of deals that probably do close, simply because the cap rate is too low (i.e., price is too high) so I knock it out pretty early on and it might not even cross my radar.An active agent or broker in the area who's working with clients probably has a better exposure to a lot of deals closing, and thus a lot of cap rates, than an individual investor like me who pre-screens a lot of deals and only does transactions for her/himself.As far as "applying a cap rate", you may already know this but in case someone else reading this in the future doesn't, what I mean is taking the net income (NOI) of the property and dividing it by a (somewhat-arbitarily-chosen, I admit) market cap rate to result in an estimated value.

Is it simply the best to wait and see?

The ability for a client to simply not pay you is enormous, and (at least in Georgia), it's unbelievably hard for a contractor to get money out of a non-paying customer.

They are responsible for yard upkeep so I’m assuming it’s on them to simply take a shovel and clear the ends out but not sure.

@Ronald Rohde we do not own the RE, we are simply helping the current owner find a buyer (or possibly a new tenant) for the building.
