Regular inspections for any signs of wear, cracks, or water damage are advisable to maintain the facade's integrity.Parking and Access: The covered parking area is a significant advantage for tenants, but ensures the area is well-lit and secure to prevent any potential safety issues.Interior Features:Layout: The open floor plan with large windows ensures ample natural light, which is appealing to tenants.

Cutting back vegetation etc.The home probably got more deferred maintenance, water damage evident even in this video.

They now have an exemption process, not sure of the exact standards for it but I exempted my ADU recently.

Nothing different than Brandon Turner's "No money down" book I guess...Concepts definitely aren't new and 95% of deals still require some cash, but just like Brandon Turner's book it simply lays out some alternative options to your standard "go get a loan from the bank" buying/selling real estate methods.

I will post my story on here... it resulted in a more than 8000 loss... and water bills which were not paid, and which Northpoint was supposed to assist in transfering to tenant's name. 

Assuming you are in the 22% - 24% federal tax bracket for most of your income, your tax would be about $76,000(disregarding standard/itemized deducitons and other income).If you can somehow show rental losses = $300,000, you would get a refund of her federal taxes and potentially state taxes also.

The initial cost can be high, but no maintenance or water costs afterward.Good luck with your project! 

You can set specific criteria to spot underpriced homes, distressed properties, or anything that’s flown under the radar.I know several investors have had more luck with using water shut off lists, so while it's more work, that might be an even better approach.One thing to note is that Privy compiles real-time MLS data and integrates public records, so you’re not just getting a snapshot of the listing status but a full picture, including owner history, property condition, and any price drops over time.That said, if your focus is primarily on expired listings, I'd also suggest checking out RedX—they’re known for their niche in expireds and FSBOs.

About a month ago our renter called to say that the water is leaking through the air vent from the ceiling.

Of course your/my mileage may vary - but this seems such a standard thing to do, I can not imagine it's worth thousand dollars of contract rocket science.
