Antioch six - years ago was a train wreck.

Portland, Maine is, from a management standpoint, a train wreck. 

@Lori Williams I have out of state investors call me all the time desperate to sell properties that they bought in areas where people literally will steal the aluminum siding off as far as they can reach....but the prices that they paid are ridiculous....it's highway robbery and in all cases, when I saw the properties they were wrecks and the worst part is most of them paid cash so they didn't even have the protection of an appraisal and they're too trusting, believing what the person selling the property to them is telling them without doing their own due diligence. 

I saw a number of American sellers doing fake testimonials for anything from real estate, make money online, accident attorneys ("I was in a car wreck"), etc.Fake testimonials are nothing new, but I wanted to point out that I could get TEN decent to high quality testimonials for my new "course" just by writing out the scripts and paying $50.

I am not the bravest person still until this day but I am not a nervous wreck anymore while talking to people because I practiced and watched confident people communicate and mirrored them.

Like your tenant wrecking the place.Even if you do a short or let it go into foreclosure you will likely get a 1099 for then forgiven debt or a deficiency judgment.

Recently, I gave up, and decided to just try and give it back, or let them take it (my credit is pretty wrecked anyway from being late for 2 years).

The coin ops could help defray your water bill a little if its not separated.Also regarding the buildings heating system make sure you check to make sure the numbers to pay utilities dont wreck your plans for positive cash flow.

I invested passively in a single family rental, and it went well the first year, then the tenant skipped town and wrecked the place.

His credit is going to be wrecked.
