This will prevent me from getting tied up in any of their affairs.

From my experience it is better to do any preventative work on the units before tenants move in to avoid hassle down the road. 

For a genuine hoarder, 6 months would not be enough anyway, heck, 12 months would not be long enough since they have mental blocks preventing them from throwing things away. 

Appearantly the landlord lobby is so incredibly weak here in portland they can’t prevent anything unless it gets contested under Oregon state constitutional grounds.

Unfortunately the title report and survey show an easement that will prevent this. 

Unless you plan on doing all the work yourself, you should factor in termite inspection/prevention, possible tree removal/trimming, clearing gutters to prevent leaks, sending contractors to fix things that break, painting unit after each tenant, changing locks after each tenant, cleaning, appliance maintenance etc. 

For individuals who have used a low fee custodian, what kinds of issues have prevented custodians from providing consent to the owner?

In this example, lets say the mortgage is for $500K and the property was $700K and is now worth $350K.Are there typically terms in the mortgage that prevent or allow this?

One of my properties was in the path of Hurricane Florence and while it thankfully didn’t appear to sustain major damage, there’s resulting water stain on the ceiling in the bottom floor.

.- Exterior paint, interior paint - HVAC and water heater appear new, roof appears new- Interior has some water stain marks, replace drywall patches- Replace kitchen with modern cabinets, granite, appliances- Oak floors downstairs hopefully can be refinished- Replace carpet upstairs with composite flooring or nice carpet - stairs are carpeted!
