A lot of renters prefer actual apt buildings because they offer more features and are new compared to most standard multi-fam homes.

@Scott Sambrook conventional (Fannie/Freddie) underwriting standards only require 6 months' seasoning before a new appraisal can be used to determine the value of a property for refinance purposes, but in my experience most lenders still want to see 12 months of ownership before they'll play along with that.

You will need anywhere from 20-30% downpayment for a standard construction loan.

They have highest standard of integrity and honesty.   

As ****** as it was to discover this 12 hours before I was supposed to board a plane I successfully used my big boy auger to cut and pull the roots.

What if it's a triplex that needs three of a lot of expensive things, asbestos abatement, discover there is soil contamination because it used to have a small gas pump and holding tank under the driveway from when the 3rd unit used to be the driver's quarters in the early 20th century and it's leaking into the earth (I've actually come across that) and it totals way more than $65k?

The standard is 2 years in the line of work.

Lots of listings state seller will not do any repairs, however, if you uncover hidden items not present during standard initial walk through, you can certainly re-trade the price to cover the added costs.

Is this standard language on a normal lease agreement in Cleveland is will this language have to be added to lease?

Otherwise, to be honest, I've discovered in speaking with clients that it's better as a direct conversation with a lender.
