Verify water drains quickly.

It sounds silly, its ridiculous, but they say they can't take on that risk so it is what it is.How about this as an immediate solution - refer the buyer, ie you and your spouse, to another agent outside your firm for a standard referral fee (25% or so of the commission) to "represent" you.

Everything was going well until first tropical storm flooded with 18 inches of water.

gas, sewer, water, electric, garage?    

Also, what is the "standard" price for a home that you are living in.

You might guess that our tenants had a massive failure of their water heater, which (with no experience and no contacts) I had to coordinate the $1800 replacement from a mountain cabin near Estes Park.

In my case, I include water bc it’s paid by the condo association.

There is a limited and standard.

In Atlanta, you're required to attend a briefing/meeting, then complete the application and provide requested info about the property, then they schedule the inspection and approve or reject the application per the standards.
