Also these people who take take on these adversarial positions are typically very stupid, have a personality disorder like border line personality disorder, high conflict personality types.

Similarly,once the unit is actually vacated, I email them pics as property was found, with further details of any needed/recommended repairs or improvements with itemization of any items Tenant will be charged for.For properties that we received with very long term tenants in them, upon move out we automatically provide a proposal from one of our licensed contractors for what is usually a sorely needed major renovation.

We even spoke to the family in the renovated home next door, and they were relieved that we were interested in doing something about the property because it was such an eye sore and caused a lot of trouble. 

that's a sore topic for me.  

It truly was the typical eye sore that you read about. 

Shut my computer & rest as my husband keeps telling me in last few days cause I am sick, fever & sore throat knock me down but I could not hand off my computer & stop digging on MLS for a good deal.I won't give up & I refuse to give up, I will crack the code & find a way that will work.

After you've looked at 100 properties, a good deal will stick out like a sore thumb. 

Most people are happy to see an investor who wants to fix up the neighborhood eye sore.

Pet urine, fleas, insects of all sorts, plumbing in disorder, roof leaking - and people are still living there; to those people still living in such conditions, they probably think that is "livable".

Those new shingles just stood out like a sore thumb against the remainder of the roof.To this day, I still think about how much nicer that house would have been -- how its curb appeal would have been enhanced 100% -- had I done it right the first time.People pull up, they notice that new roof, and they know it's one less (expensive) thing that they're going to have to worry about.
