If you have invested in Sacramento before, I would really appreciate it if you could share your reasoning behind where you decided to invest and your experiences owning a rental property in this market.

If they turn it down, you can decide to counter back and ask them to share the cost or just suck it up and install it on your own dime after closing.

I flat out said "no, perhaps your new wife can share your retirement, pensions, etc, but not the equity in my mom's house."  

Some of the demographics you shared don't look good to me, but you need to convince yourself.

Make your unit sparkle like a new penny and you will get top dollar for your area.Just wanted to share my thoughts.

One of the frequent money cases that people share with me is one spouse wants to invest to get out of the rat race but the other spouse is unwilling to do so because their family grew up with little money.

However, your agent should be sharing this with you.

But care to share your property management company and if your happy with them?  

It is 2 parcels, with a shared water meter for everything.
