I just noticed your auto seems a bit, well junky.

I could fly home to take care of my parents with zero notice and stay for a month, or two.

@Sanjay Singh but I’ve noticed that many houses there are within my budget ....Can't comment on the Indianapolis market but generally speaking buying real estate in a particular market because the housing is within your budget is not a valid reason to invest.

Im noticing investors are very different and each have different criteria for what they are looking for in a flip.

They also noticed the furnace and hot water tank is missing / stolen. 

May be expensive but they are dedicated to private lender law, securities law and creditors' rights.

Quote from @William Causey: When choosing a private money lender, how do you weigh the importance of flexible loan terms versus fast closings?

If you're looking to do a fix and flip or something like that, there's no reason why private lending couldn't work for you.

Just keep the amount within any local rules and give proper notice.

In the meantime, put the tenant who broke their lease on notice that they have violated the terms that they agreed to in the lease which is a binding legal document.
