There is a dilapidated, unoccupied duplex in my local town (literally a 10 min walk from my home) and it is by a cemetary.

Ok, so your all for allowing Police to just randomly crab anyone, walk in your home whenever for whatever, with or without reason, right?   

And than video, should always have a walk through video tour, a decent one, not some shaky running around spinny spinny thing.

With the expenses where they were at, and the purchase price being higher than I would want it, ultimatly I had to walk away. 

That can be a real problem. any idea someone can work around that or it is best to walk away from the deals if the owner doesn't want to take on this battle?

For at least half of nearly forty years life I've lived and invested in property within a block or short walk to the beach in South Florida, Southern California, Southern Oregon and Northern Baja Mexico. 

While they seemed nice enough during the walk throughs, I could sense that they were not going to be particularly happy to have a new landlord coming into the picture and kicking one of them out.  

We did a walk through and did not smell anything 2 days ago. so afterthe complaint we said we could go there and inspect.tenant started getting really angry and complaining about other things and how much rent they pay and we are greedy.

It's usually around $15 on Amazon. https://amzn.to/3VKVLLP He virtually walks you through this step by step, and it's a great resource if you have questions later and don't want to go back to the forums.Second, as a Realtor and investor in Illinois, I agree with everyone.

I had walked the property and told him he was crazy for not making an offer.
