They won't be able to fix that problem as there is probably a small leak in a pipe or a crack in the foundation or a bit of water coming in from somewhere or moisture building up in the home.I also agree with Nathan about taking the first contractor to small claims court.

I’d love your input on whether this deal could appeal to investors and how best to structure it.Property Details:Worth: ~$300,000HOA: $273/month, Taxes/Insurance: ~$170/monthCurrent Rent: $1,880/month (long-term); next tenant advertised at $1,950/month.Mid-term rental potential: ~$2,400/month (I haven’t tried this, but it’s my estimate).My Financing Idea:Large down payment: ~$125,000 (This is my priority to reinvest elsewhere).Seller-financed balance: ~$175,000 at 4.25% for 30 years.Buyers take over taxes, insurance, and HOA.Questions:1.

:/None of that will matter in court but what do you mean by ‘enforcing’? 

The open floor plan and natural lighting make the space seam bright and airy while the community features like the tennis courts Pool and guard service will make you feel at home.

Charge them for when you believe would be a tenant charge and re-consider if/when they appeal. 

While a gorgeous property with an opportunity for an ADU is appealing, I’m more interested in a fixer-upper.

We had to schedule another hearing, but when the tenants failed to attend, the court simply scheduled another opportunity for them.

This may not seem important now but I’ve had two partnerships turn sour and if we’d have had an exit strategy on either it would have saved tens of thousands of dollars on legal fees and court costs.

On the surface, the deal seems appealing, but there's a catch: the asking price is $475,000, which is about 18% over the market value (based on comps and DealCheck estimates around $402,000).Details of the DealProperty: Duplex, 2,400 sq. ft., Purchase Price: $475,000 ($197.9/sq. ft.).Estimated Market Value: $402,000 ($168/sq. ft.).Financing Terms: 2% interest rate, with a 9-year balloon.Unit B Income: $2,049/month (Section 8 tenant through November 2025).Unit A Income Potential: Similar rent or higher; Section 8 cap for the area is $3,234/month.Monthly Loan Payment (P+I): $1,386.Cash Flow Breakdown (if both units are rented at $2,049/month):Gross Rent: $4,098/month.Vacancy (10%): $410/month.Operating Expenses (37.3%): $1,376/month.Net Cash Flow: $943/month.Key QuestionsWould you be comfortable paying an 18% premium for financing at 2%, especially in a market where current mortgage rates are closer to 7%?

Generally, the court proceeding will dictate what is to be done with the property and who gets what.
