Delaware Investors,Are you looking to unload any single family rentals.  

@Michael De Blokif you don't have time and resources to build the foundation like finding the realtor, contractors, PM company then other way is to find reputable turnkey providers in the area you are interested to invest.

We did find one that we spoke with yesterday, but could always use more recommendations.Long term (once we de-lead our house and move forward from this unexpected mess) we are looking to convert our 2 unit to a 3 unit, so would be looking for a lawyer that has experience with zoning/planning as well. 

post facto, evidence of lease violation without actual damages would not justify the loss of deposit, this is true despite your moral outrage

We knew they weren't going to be great on rent, but we had a house that borders a bad area.

We realize that house hacking is a good way to get started, but have struggled with leaving downtown as we like it so much.Due to a series of related events, we decided to that we should at least look at areas we like to frequent (Ohio City, Tremont and Detroit Shoreway)(these are neighborhoods the border downtown Cleveland for those not familiar. 

Congrats from North of the border ! 

@Johnathan MathewsI have a contact based here in Ontario.I can put you in touch with her if you would like, she sets up cross border deals for Canadian looking to invest in the U.S and would have all the necessary information regarding taxes, returns and so forth.

A few months ago around Christmas time we were doing a bathroom remodel for a new homeowner on a house that was flipped, the master bathroom was a disaster, there isn't enough space to go into all the things wrong, so I'll just tell you about the bathtub - jetted tub they bought from Home Depot, so it was a de-engineered Jacuzzi model, low horsepower pump, less jets than the non Home Depot version, but it looked new and shiney. 1) Tub wasn't sitting on the sub-floor, was suspended by it's rim, even it they had built the tub deck correctly to size based on everything else I sure they wouldn't have poured a mortar base for it to sit in.
