You being so handy is a great plus to start out with, you won't get burned.

Generally speaking they got burned because they didn't know what they were doing, didn't offer full disclosure and made promises they couldn't keep!

I have never come across the scenario above, but if we got word that the house burned down over the weekend we would obviously contact the title company right away and tell them to pull the recording and we wouldn't move forward with the purchase or close escrow.What if the seller returned to the house over the weekend and busted up the walls (it's still his house, right)?

Owners of resort vacation properties are viewed as fat cats, and its like painting a target on your back.

We all burn brighter together!

So I agree with @Robert Steele, I am not a "tenant whisperer" and I would have been burned many times had I not used NTN.

Thus, I've came here for a idea better then telling the unwashed masses that I have $8K burning in my pocket.edit: Please believe I will find people on the ground before I hand over any money.

Fat fingers, small keyboard.

burn the house to the ground with the tenants in it.

I feel the burning desire to make it happen in this business has to come from within.
