The lis pendens will be removed once the house is brought up to code (demolished or rebuilt). 

But other times, it’s been even more unsettling—people are using the lockbox code to let themselves in when we’re not home.

@Jayson Tripp What zip code is the property in? 

Left a VM with the Community Planner... so hopefully I'll hear back soon.I was wondering if anyone has a STR in Glen Ellyn and if they could share the code with me.

I was just saying the product exists and so much so there were vendors who paid significant money at BPcon to get the word out about that product. it might be in certain markets, there might be strict criteria, but a lender saying they don't exist is crazy. 

She's a practicing Muslim so they have very strict rules around not being able to pay interest (what they call 'riba').

They also don't use automated locks and manually change the guest code every few weeks7)They have terrible response times when I reach out to them.There's a lot more... these are just a few things that are top of mind.

According to the FMR HUD for that zip code a property of this type should get somewhere around $1620 per month. 

The house is about 70% complete but still needs electrical, plumbing, and AC brought up to code and the finish out to be completed.

I know there are some really clever people out there who have cracked the code on converting equity into cashflow without just selling properties.
