Of course you have to monitor your mileage and carry better insurance than owning an older car out right.

Do you think it is prudent or foolish to wait and monitor from the sidelines?

We were thinking of just buying an off the shelf system that has night vision & is motion activated from Costco since we already have a monitored system through Livewatch.

Property management is easily monitored and recordable3.

It's like the credit monitoring commercial, telling you what's wrong (for a fee) is not the same as telling you what it will cost to fix (for free) when you send in your contractor.  

This may be the case with your neighbor, especially since it appears you've been monitoring the supposed activity the neighbor claims and seen nothing that confirms this.Some home owners are just nosy people who would rather see an empty building than tenants living there.My story....we once had an incident where a young man decided to ride his bicycle down to the local Kroger very early one morning to buy his uncle some soda.

I don't have $200,000 personally to rehab a place so I wanted to go the 203k route.I have gone through the process of getting pre-approved for a 203k and have been advised that I will have to do A LOT of leg work finding 203k approved contractors, and working with the consultant that will monitor the process from start to finish etc.I have decided to go 203k over FHA because I want my place to be damn near brand new so that I won't have to worry about roofs, water heaters etc. for the first few years.
