These will be markets where housing is affordable for both residents and owners.

Hey Adam,I’ve been in the Tampa real estate game for 20 years as an investor and owner of a property management company.

I am looking for recommendations for best financing options.The owner is considering financing it, but until they agree, I am planning as if they will not do so.The local credit union I use, who is very investor friendly, is unable to lend on properties larger than 4 units right now. 

A reasonableness standard is applied to negligence claims and I would argue a property owner who owns real estate in the Poconos and knows the property is left vacant due to the owners decision to lease the property as a short term rental should know that the pipes are more inclined to freeze and therefore should install heat tracing lines or other measure to ensure the plumbing lines do not freeze.

Off market and the new the owner used an agent so I reached out to the agent and made an offer How did you finance this deal?

It’s a newly renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, just one block from the ski slopes and four blocks from downtown.The current owner has been renting it out for $30,000 per month during the peak winter and summer seasons.

So it could take a decade to get to todays market rent. 2) it’s almost impossible if not impossible to non-renew a tenant, especially if you’re not an owner occupant. 3) As a seller, even if I could remove paying tenants I never would without a non-refundable payment from a potential buyer that covers all vacancies for 6 months if they fail to complete the purchase. 4) You MIGHT say as a buyer that’s worth it.

In addition, the gas bills have shut off notices and are not being paid. (3 units are occupied and utilities are all paid by owner).

Using FHA owner occupied.

You'll also need to know your rights because the Review Boards often try to intimidate owners.
