See what the $19k was for first, it may have been neccessary, but still that does not make it ok for them to do it without a signed CO.You can ask an attorney a few questions using sites like Avvo or Rocket for not much $$$.

Basically, these are lands that technically qualify as Sending sites, but that have issues such that nobody really wants to build there.

Does this mean the realtor does not have exclusive rights to sell the property and the owner is probably advertising the same property on one of those by owner sites?

Quote from @Dinesh Nair: I am a Canadian investor with a US corporate entity- we closed on our first property and now working to find financing through a lender… however rates keep changing all the time.. is there a site to track rates ? 

We're also starting to scour other forums for possible investments outside the traditional MLS sites, and other areas like upstate NY. 

I’m a real estate agent that specializes in distressed properties. great, sent you a connect request  

It sounds like you're trying to do right by your other tenants while also being fair to this one, but it’s clear the situation can’t continue.First, it’s great that you’ve already put quiet hours in place and handed out notices—smart move!

GC in my area cost 10% of the total and I would say that is worth it for what they provide, but if you have the knowledge and willingness to be on the phone with subs (and spend a lot of time on site) you could save that by DIYing it.

Great questions.

@Rae Chris Ann Arbor is pretty expensive, so difficult to find cashflowing rentals.You may want to look in Ypsilanti - if you want to stay in your area.Otherwise, Metro Detroit offers a LOT of options.Read our copy & paste below for some helpful info:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location 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?
