A current CMA is a must and will save clients thousands of dollars on a transaction.

Doesn’t seem like a great return however we sleep easier with the lead certificates and from my experience, as an team lead of 26 investor focused agents doing over 100 multi-family transactions through YTD 2021, the certificates are worth an extra $5-10k per unit when you sell the property.

The 3rd party inspector also informed me that while K&T is a red flag, it's not illegal .Additional context:  We like the location and upgraded all the window AC units to one central unit for one unit and mini split systems to the other two units.

That private lender was happy with the transaction.

Logic to me says ask for the highest amount possible so that I will at least know what I am able to obtain in lending for this transaction as well as other future deals. 

It is illegal in CA to discriminate due to occupation.

I’d give your agent the benefit of the doubt as it sounds like they’re just trying to get you a good rate from a lender they trust to get the transaction tot he finish line with no drama.

That is big for sure, if you do not the seller really never has to give them to you unless you take them to small claims after the transaction.

Build a team of experts that aren't in it for one transaction, but a long relationship.
