Bottom line, the specific facts pertaining to the transaction would have to be examined to know when or whether an illegal act has occurred, and what remedies are available to investors who were harmed as a result.

If your house caught on fire 1 day before selling it, your homeowners insurance would pay to remediate the fire damage, but they wouldn't compensate you for the loss of the sale/profit.

So, to clarify just make sure there is a contingency in there for review/remedy of the POS?

At the same time, housing operators are havingto repair damaged units while insurance costs spiral ever higher.Thebottom line: Revenues are falling while expenses are rising.Thereare no quick remedies.

Unfortunately, my lovely co-tenant refused to vacate and continues to threaten the landlord- filing “remedy and repair “ , contacting neighbors, calling him slumlord, opening his private mail — psycho full steam ahead.

I am typically looking at larger more expensive items.What I have typically done is once I am officially owner of the property, I will ask each tenant to name me 1-2 items that need to get repaired/fixed/remedied right off the bat.

However this last tenant left our unit in a very damaged and extremely filthy state that took considerable work to remedy (which was a surprise because they had been pretty responsible until this event). 

That will cost extra time and money to remedy.
