I agree about not upsetting them more than necessary.

“The Federal Court’s ruling yesterday is a victory for all property ownersand tenants.

@Shawn Connors  I think one main take away is you now realize how upset folks get when they think you have been less than truthful with them..

The victorious fantasy day ended with a five star restaurant where make believe investor would take the crew out for dinner.  

He was also very upset at how my current window was installed and ended up failing (seam failure).

I understand your question and your thinking on that. what i was questioning is why would you get your tenants even more upset ( probably already upset the rent went up ) your cost to do repairs probably have not gone up in a year. if you raise rents from what $950 to $1000 per month ?

No sure about the reputation aspect, although, if they (the realtors) know you're an investor, they'll be expecting low offers so I wouldn't think they would get upset about it..

Hello BP community,    I just found this company 2 days ago and I am really upset that I am so far behind everyone else.  

I'd call the firm and ask for the upset price a day or two before the sale.

For NC trustee sales, you'll need to pay the trustee 5% of your final winning bid at the conclusion of the auction, and the trustee will send a demand letter for the remainder after the statutory 10 day upset period ends.
