Direct Answer

A sale prep scorecard helps owners see whether the rent roll, expenses, tenant records, property information, and timing assumptions are ready for buyer review. The cleaner the file, the easier it is to defend value during diligence.

Current rent roll is completeTrailing income and expenses are organizedLeases and tenant files are availableInsurance, utility, and tax records are readyKnown repairs and retrofit history are documentedLoan payoff or assumption details are understoodRent-control status has been reviewedAccess plan for inspections is realistic

Readiness Score

A lower score does not mean you cannot sell. It means the file needs more preparation before buyers start diligence.

How to Use It

Check the items you already have ready. The score is a planning tool, not a requirement to speak with Don.
