Question regarding income/expenses disclosure timeline

​

My father and I are in the process of buying a new property to Airbnb in British Columbia, Canada. On April 2, we signed a contract and I asked my real estate agent for the expenses and income. She never said no and agreed to get all the information we needed. I realize now not setting a deadline for this or getting it in writing was a mistake.

​

Fast forward to today (April 22), I was approved for the mortgage a week ago and made the earnest payment for the property around the same time. When meeting our real estate agent today, she said I should write her an email with what specific income and expenses I want. We had always said we wanted to login to the owner's Airbnb account (this property earns half of its income from Airbnb and half from mid term rentals). Our real estate agent agreed tentatively to giving us this information when we signed the contract, but now she says our request is not reasonable.

​

So here are my questions. Is it acceptable to login to somebody else's Airbnb account? What should we expect a rent role to look like? How do we know it is not fabricated since they won't let us login to their Airbnb? At what point in this real estate deal would it have been appropriate for expenses and income to have been disclosed? What power do I have to force them to give over the information I want?

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
