@Jesse Jones-Smith, I'm a lot like @Nicholas L.. 

The assignment agreement addendum was signed a few weeks into escrow.I was not worried that this would trigger the seller to back out.  

I offer remote services no branch apt needed, electronic signing.

Find anyone really to sign a quit claim or make them up, have it notarized (the notary's name is not on the GA notary list by the way), and then buy a property for $90k, you take a $8k hit on the fees, then you get back the overage paid to you by the city. 

Before signing up, i asked if I could talk to a FS student to so they referred me to a woman who had good things to say.

Do I need to have them sign a new lease to raise rents.  

Quote from @Philip Jones: Investors which loan products do you prefer for flips?

sign me up.. but I am not going to fly spirit airlines  :)

Once you read the explanation below, you will understand how REALLY bad things can be if you don't get the letters but go through with the purchase.First, the owner/seller should have a clause in the lease requiring tenants to sign (or object to in writing) tenant estoppel letters if presented to them.

Whatever you do, please make sure that you get something signed saying that are completely gone and have no claim to any possessions they left behind.
