If you default it goes into collections and harms your credit.

First floor has sent many abusive foul texts, but no overt threats to harm us.  

If it's in a less than ideal neighborhood, on a street with other abandoned homes, and has been vacant for years, chances are it will take a few thousand dollars (at least) to make it habitable.  

Old habits die hard.  ;-)Good luck!

FHA has a lot of requirements for safety and habitability such as flooring, smoke detectors, railings, etc.  

But our data is primarily used to obtain buyer habits/motive.

@Carlos Carrales Good eye, watching out for other investors out there; I know I've been burned before, and many others have as well; no one's ever in the habit of wanting to go through that experience again.

Try googling the term "house hacking" and you will understand.I meant no harm and sincerely do hope you use the resources on BP to better yourself and your investing career.

Don't make a habit out of doing it though.

Additionally it's extremely hard for me to trust any property managers, brokers & real estate agents out around in Boston because they aren't familiar with their own laws and rent out places that aren't even habitable or to state code ( for brokers/real estate agents not their responsibility but seriously, that's just morally wrong).
