Additionally, based on what seems to be a little shady way of the seller dealing, I would cancel the contract in full and start over offering a new purchase price opposed to trying to negotiate down the current contract price, once I confident the seller has grossly mis-rep'd the information.

I know sending letters (as oppose to cold calling) is a more sensitive/safe way to contact the love ones of a probate property.

Keeping occupants in the homes is sometimes a hedge against the property being vandalized or squatters moving in and can keep the home in general fair condition with people there opposed to nobody thereThe statement of possession is a CYA for them.

My father has bought and renovated 2 SFH's for rental income, but he does it by hiring people to work on each individual project per day as opposed to per job.

(Also not opposed to very specific advice either).Ok, for starters, let’s assume I have $100k cash to invest in real estate (ideally multi-unit properties).

My new tenants ( younger ) were happy with clean carpet / curtains and drapery rods ( instead of verticals/mini blinds ) and decent paint.I still need to put a new wall heater in a few months ( another post talking about this ).So, I was able to avoid some remodeling costs this time around.I think is is partially due to providing a "reasonable" rent for the area and the lack of 3br 1bath small houses (so there was less competition) as opposed to apartment living.Thanks to all,, Rich C :)

I'm specifically looking for properties in Rutherford county, but I'm not opposed to other counties.

I overlooked the part about you having a contract as opposed to owning the property.

I am hoping it will be less maintanance that way as opposed to a SFR.

Back to my point, the discussion and request seem to be very broad in nature opposed to specific, which I think also illustrates a lack of acute understanding of those attempting to engage in a discussion about notes.
