It is common for rental property investors to feel the pain when a property turns over but keep in mind that is why we retain security deposits for you.

Hi, We have five garnishments on evicted tenants in KCMO that our Lawyer is chasing, with very limited success. Has anyone else dealt with this problem? I'm almost tempted to turn them over to a debt collection agency...

The judge asked if we had negotiated and I said I had offered him the opportunity to just leave, which he declined.Anyway, he has set aside a whole hour for the hearing, so I can only imagine what a pain it will be. 

Appreciate you sharing your post/pain points from a buyers perspective.

What is the customer to do when you, the contractor, takes my $5k and disappears into the wind? 

I am just attempting to give you my view point and possibly highlight some points that may be a bit painful to hear but which are nonetheless true and which may help in the future, idk. 

I don't even know what to say, except to hope that it's all kids who do not yet know the pain of rush hour commute, and think all things "grown up" are cool grown up things. 

They are singularly focused to avoid the pain. 

A few years back, there were opportunities in the best markets (Venice, Florence and Rome) but they might have disappeared.
