Out of state investing can be annoying but our dollar stretched further Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Same for a tenant that trashes the place with five dogs or annoys the neighbors or moves in a friend and his family of six.

The president of the HOA acts annoyed with me when I follow up too much about this issue.

If it's vacant and you have the funds, I would renovate both sides ASAP and get it rented as it can be annoying for the tenant to live in one side and have the other being renovated.

Heck- my property management company doesn't advertise and we turn potential contracts with property owners away all of the time, but our phone rings constantly with property owners who have terrible PMs and are looking for anyone who can do better and operate with some modicum of ethics- and a few who are annoyed at their PM because the DO have ethics and want someone to be their slum lord by proxy. 

It beats annoying an agent for comps for every property.

- I know the answer will depend on any debts the owner had, and if the beneficiaries will agree to it, which could be annoying on their end, etc. but I guess I'm just curious before I talk to the agent, if anyone can tell me if it's even an option since offers need court approval (from what it says in the mls). 2.

If they can't get comfortable they won't invest, and if they annoy the sponsor with 1,000 questions the sponsor might quietly drop them from their list. 

I'd charge that back to the tenant if any.If the changes haven't actually done damage but are more just an annoyance because it shouldn't have been done, I would talk to the tenant and review the lease which states no changes to property without prior consent.There should be an opportunity to request a rent increase from the housing authority.

If they pay on the 3rd it’s annoying.
