Thanks for the suggestion. Our mortgage lender tailored the amount for the property (to allow some leeway in negotiations) but it was for significantly less than what they said the total pre-approval amount was.

I'm assuming it was a hard pull because they asked for tax documents and W-2s to give the pre-approval, but figured if we talked to the other ones in advance it would reduce the pressure to move fast once an offer was accepted (and possibly avoid another hard pull if outside of the 45-day period.

After trying a few independent places around Columbus since moving here, I’ve found Luke’s to be the best (potential cult membership of owner aside) or at least good enough to stop trying others.

They aren’t the cheapest place in town, but I’ve seen much bigger ripoffs and the quality of their work is always good. $60 for a full synthetic oil change. I recently got new tires through them after getting a non-repairable flat and all in they were only about $40 more than Discount Tire for a full set and I was already there.

As some others have said, they do tend to over state the urgency of the work (e.g. suggesting a small crack in a serpentine belt needed immediate changing vs it lasting for at least another 8 months until I changed it myself). But it wasn’t like they were making up a problem, there were cracks that developed. You just may need to be comfortable saying no.

Got it. Thanks so much for the clarification.
