Since some listing agents are lazy and don't care to do that stuff, it's been my experience that the tenants will probably be taken by surprise when you show up with your agent to look :)And sometimes the tenants are just uncooperative for showings, so don't be surprised if that occurs.

The tenants have complained about the same issue of non responsiveness, so even though they are a bit crazy, they still have a valid gripe and I wish they had alerted me sooner that this was occurring.

I can't say I have seen a single person go directly into wholesaling full time, it is usually a transition that occurs after they have some experience and have fine turned their systems and built a solid reputation among local investors.

It's been a few hours so I've allowed time for the update to occur.

If there are no comps, then the are no sales occurring.

When the police department intervenes at a gathering which constitutes a nuisance under this article, the premises ... shall be posted with a notice stating that the intervention of the police has been necessitated ... the date of the police intervention, and that any subsequent event within the period set forth below on the same premises, which necessitates police intervention, shall result in the joint and several liability of any guests causing the public nuisance, or any persons who own or are residents of the property at which the public nuisance occurred....

My advise is find some good cash flowing properties and invest for the long term.J Scott and Albert Hasson My question is, if you knew that this was going to occur without a doubt, then how would your strategy change in preparation?

That is where failures in real estate investing occur I've found.

However, do I also have to act as the property manager if an issue occurs with the tenant?

But a more realistic estimate of cash flow is:cash flow = rent * 50% - P&IIf your property works with that formula, and you have some cash in the bank for hiccups that occur soon after you buy, you'll do OK.
