If your tenant prolongs their stay one month, you've probably cost yourself more than what the attorney would have charged.

These are repairs that are more maintenance in nature and don’t necessarily add material value, prolong the life of the asset or adapt the asset for a new or different use.

Initially, the first buyer and I have spoken about the contract and negotiated about the home, however, he has prolonged the process due to inconsistency (Since February).

He told me that plumbing companies are buying up water heaters by the hundreds as fast as manufacturers can produce them to have stock on hand and prolong dealing with this problem a little longer.I got quotes from three different independent plumbers and eventually decided to tackle it on my own. 

Plus there are new closing requirements that seem to prolong the closing by 1 to 2 weeks. 

My lawyer said, any contact with the renter could prolong the eviction.

It would just prolong investing.

The last thing you want to do is say the wrong thing (without even knowing it) and getting yourself into trouble and prolonging the process.

However, at this price range, chance of something happen is much higher: Tenants are not sustainable, location is questionable, vacancies might be prolonged and bunch of other risks.OP should have reserves at least 6-8 mo of expenses set aside plus reserve for repairs if property is vandalized.Disclaimer: I'm not criticizing - I'm pretty risky about my investments also.......so I just tell how it works in real life and what to expect.

Rising Labor Cost, increased government spending, and prolonged housing shortages are the main pressure points.
