Theyre expensive, but you wont lose your home to foreclosure unless you move out, stop paying taxes/insurance, or fail to maintain it. 

You are preparing to give them $3,000/$6,000/or maybe $9,000 when they stop paying.

Turn the water heater valve off and see if that stops the pressure loss. 

Large basement and attic space, new roof and some of the kitchen is already torn out from the current owner. one bedroom does have a closet that will need built. plumbing seems fine, maybe a couple angle stops to change.

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

Personally due to the rate environment, I am sitting at 65% LTV on my properties, but I also stopped buying and started private lending (in the US at least, I just bought a house in Portugal).You're in a really good position here, it'll just take some math, homework with banks, and diligence in renter underwriting to end up with a fantastic income property and portfolio. 

I also do not stop marketing unit including open houses until i have a holding deposit.  

I wake up a random Tuesday am and think "yeah, paying on these notes sucks, ok, let's stop doing that" and I just send an e-mail saying payments stop.......

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

I’m predicting that people sitting on the sidelines due to rate volatility over the past year will realize that waiting is futile and will stop sitting on their hands.
