The tenant was responsible for the other 11 months of the lease rent and paid two months and then stopped.

Ziprent found me a tenant with an 800 credit score in 7 days near the top of the market rent for my condo during slow season!

I appreciate your response, but I don’t appreciate that you’re assuming I’m just wasting money.

The short-and-sweet responses to your post:1. 

The tenants are clearly responsible here.

I get compliments all the time about how responsive I was. 

Feel free to send me a private message as well.Dave,I was not trying to be flippant regarding the 'management is easy'... just didn't want to get all wordy in my response. 

It can also work if you're planning to do an option, assignment, or double closing, because you're not taking on the risk of holding the property for an extended period, but if things continue slowing down (thank you, high interest rates), you'll want to be very careful about how much you're offering, especially if you stick to the straight flipping model, where you take title to the property and don't make any improvements to force appreciation.

If they settled for such a large amount, the landlord must have carried some responsibility, and the insurance lawyers didn't feel they could win the case.
