The biggest challenge was addressing unforeseen structural issues, which ate into the budget.

But they had issued insurance on day I applied.

The more issues you can take off their plate before you lock it up under contract the better you'll be.

There are cheaper one’s in D/F areas but I would be careful as those can create a laundry list of additional issues.

Title issues tend to be the fact pattern where properties are truly not financeable but that's rarely the case when you see the "cash only" adverts.Ultimately, proceeds will be transferred through a title company and its not as if the buyer is showing up with a duffel bag filled with cash.

No pictures.One property we spot check because we are only an hour away.If we find issues or get cleaning complaints they are going to do better or we get a new cleaner.

Getting them all I same room however would be an issue.  

Like anything it has to stay balanced but small gestures go a long way in reducing turnover and mitigating many "would be" issues. 

The moisture issue and structural issue need to be addressed and you can do so before the insurance adjuster comes out.
