@Serge Hounkponou Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Ordinarily those tenant vacated damages would be too remote, but it sounds like they were contemplated by both parties at the time of contract.Were I in this situation I would be looking to state law to determine if the EMD is truly the extent of my potential liability as a buyer. 

You'll have tenants that don't pay, damages made, and potentially other disasterous situations occur on your properties. 

Save yourself the brain damage, clear it out, convert it back, discover a whole new class of tenant you can now get and enjoy the ride of eliminating 70% of the hassles this property delivers. 

From what I've seen, the days of the $1,000 and $2,500 deductibles for fire, lightening, water damage (not flood), etc. are becoming harder and harder to find.

I use a channel manager (OR) and it has damage protection built in.

So the seller cannot go get another loan for a car, house, apartment, etc. so it damages their credit by stretching them too thin.Am I missing something?
