Tips: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/10145/72118-sy...Bes sure you know what you are doing, stay conservative, under promise and over deliver, create relationships and understand the amount of money you are able to raise prior to putting a deal under contract. 

I tell him from day 1 to under promise and over deliver and if he does that I keep him busy enough

Perhaps you can reach out to a local business that creates and delivers in that city

I can deliver a fully functional Death Star of style grace and location efficiently.

No lawyer...just a two paragraph letter delivered to the head loan officer at the bank.Has anyone done this yet?

Other crimes that come to mind are brokering real estate without a license, real estate fraud (aforementioned and also possibly failure to disclose), forgery (creating fake leases), grand theft (taking money for rehabs and not delivering materials or completing work), wire fraud, money laundering (operating a Ponzi scheme), etc. etc. 

The absolute cheapest new construction I have seen recently in the less desirable cities is 290k+ based on their estimated savings over 30 years it delivers a 6.5% return per year over 30 years, which is probably a good thing for a retail buyer. 

They delivered and service them when needed.

I like to buy a property that is vacant, but if the old landlord doesn't want to kick the tenants out, and deliver to you vacant, not much you can do.

I asked them nicely a couple of times to please not park in front of my house because when I have friends over they have no place to park and the mailman has left me notes telling me he won't deliver my mail if the mailbox is blocked.
