@Will Stewart Ah okay Thanks Will so they lend based on the appraisal and most importantly what the cash flow supports of that appraisal putting it simply of course.

I simply don't have that time.

When approach it as win-win, that you care about them winning, and seeking them to help you to also win, and simply finding a path HOW, that's how results are made potential. 

There has also been wide corruption discovered within the municipalities with several folks going to jail. 

Any mentorship, advice, and simply fellowship would be appreciated. 

We simply hand them a letter that says the evidence they provided does not meet HUD guidelines and we consider the animal to be a pet.If you have a "no pet" policy, they are not accepted.  

I simply allow the buyer to be unrepresented. 

Not sure how much that tells you, but might be better than nothing. also depends on the type of property if its a rental being sold then ya most realtors will have a good list of folks looking for a rental with teh right numbers if its owner occ this simply is not remotely possible unless its a certain school district or certain style of home.. 

I recently devoured the book "How to Invest in Real Estate: The Ultimate Beginner's Guide" recently...which led me to discovering this community...which is leading me to thinking about my next chapter in life.

Lastly, simply raising the rent to cover the water bill seems like the easiest, however, should their portion of the bill exceed the amount I increase their rent by, then it'd be out of my pocket.I'm kind of at a crossroads here with making a decision and want to hear anyone's experience regarding the topic.
