You'll either need to acquire/reacquire prescriptive easement rights, negotiate a license or sue to quiet title if an abandoned claim. 

Not terrible, but 12-18% ROI for all that management might be a tough pill to swallow.  

Steve, unfortunately, there is no magic pill answer to this as every market is different.

Part of the agent's role is to supervise to be sure that nothing bad happens, or to work to rectify it if it does.Either way, always advise the tenants well in advance (according to the terms of your lease) and tell them to secure all valuables (money, jewelry), prescription and weapons.I also recommend minimizing the intrusion on the tenants by scheduling group showings at specified times only. 

It does not matter if you have a "card" with a prescription...you're not smoking that stuff here, period.No animals or pets.No felonies or evictions, ever.Personal experience tells me that you will waste time posting on Zillow. 95% of the people do not even read the ad.

While you cannot ask WHY they need the animal, you can request proof of prescription.

Some trusts even have a "poison pill provision" which you can use AGAINST the plaintiff if neccessary.To no name in Manhattan.

It was fairly dark, much about our economy being a multi-bubble economy, the weakness in housing for various reasons (including the 50% or so cash transactions and the REITs buying up quite a bit), and inflation scares, our massive debt problem, the impending meltdown of the dollar, politicians being inept, and the prescription of getting out of real estate/bonds/securities and getting into gold and inflation-based securities, etc.

There is a safe harbor (sort of) at 2 years with specific use requirements from the IRS but again the safe harbor is not meant to be prescriptive but only descriptive of one period that would be acceptable.Best advice - say your explanation to the mirror. 

Only way I would do that is if YOU HAD flood insurance and they were denying it.. but if you do not have flood insurance and fema does not have a responsibility to cover non owner occ.. then that's the risk of being an investor.. you have to deal with it as bitter of a pill that is to swallow.
