Advice about a property with existing tenants

[Brandon Mousseau]

Hi all,

I'm considering a purchase of a property that needs a fairly significant renovation. The property is currently occupied - the current tenants would like to remain on the property and sign a lease. I have concerns that having the place occupied will significantly complicate the renovation. I'm new to this and I'm investing out of state - just wanted to get others perspectives and thoughts on this situation.

Thanks!
Brandon
