I wonder if she's still working with him and he's just trying to screw them over for dragging it out on tier pricing or did they think with the contractor could do better?

I am not a contractor but I am capable of learning things quickly.

The financing to be assumed is a HUD-insured 223(f), 35-year fully amortizing loan.

In the pictures you can tell its in great shape, the kitchen looks recently upgraded and it appears there is probably about $20k in rehab needed minimum however ill wait for a contractor to assure that.

You're asking about "finding" - are you finding and putting under contract, or simply just a referral ("finders") fee?

Came highly referred from a from of mine who does contractor work for them.

Who is the insurer for the HOA?  

I'd like to get your take on the process, contractors etc.

The primary typical Team members are Attornies, real estate Agents, COA's (or accountants), Inspectors, General Contractors, and Handymen.  

Shouldn't the insurance company pay for this?
