Although I am not completely opposed to renovation I am looking for something a bit more turnkey which I can add value to through non structural improvements.

Then analyze potential areas of improvement after the dust clears.

We are aware of the permits, utilities, and drawings and such that needs to be done to make this happen and the approximate cost to make these improvements.  

I'd be willing to consider coverage for the improvements as they exist and not necessarily the replacement costs. 

The mortgage officer needs the estimate by the contractor that will perform the work once the loan is closed.  

I do out of state investing and am competent in understanding how to get financing, how to build a rehab team which consists of people on the ground that perform due diligence, contractors, realtors, wholesalers and stagers.  

maybe have them send you pictures of before and after to back up the work performed, I don't know too many people that don't have a cel phone.Use technology whenever possible 

We have spent so much time and effort improving this building and I hate to lose all that we have gained in the past several years to this person. 

Here @ BiggerPockets.com, Brandon Turner has also mentioned you could call the bank and explain to them that this is a 'performing note' and maybe that would help call them off but wondering if anyone has dealt with similar situations?

The presidential center offers a rare chance to reinvigorate the economy of nearby communities and make improvements for the area’s infrastructure and parks.
