Thanks for reading - and if you leave a response we appreciate that as well

Leaving stuff unresolved, with anything, especially divorce, is an energy vampire that is always hungry. 

You are excluding possibly the majority of available tenants to focus on the most difficult to manage and the ones who are most likely to leave your property heavily worn and damaged, all other things being equal.

I am ok and usually do leave some of my money in a refi.

You could try filing a case/judgement against them but I’m guessing they ar leaving the area to screw over the next MTR landlord.

If you can buy a home each time you move and leave a trail of rental properties behind you, you'll be FIRE before you know it.

Based on my 20+ years of real estate experience, I’d say renting the condo might not be the best option—$2,000/month rent minus $800 in condo fees leaves you with just $1,200 before taxes and maintenance, and seniors' condos can be tricky to rent.

.- Since you need a key to lock a deadbolt when you leave the premises, tenant's can't lock their key(s) in the home and then pester us to come let them back in.--- Tenants can still lose their keys outside their home:(

Getting you to finish the work and then to leave are other problems I see in your "deal structure." 

I don't care if 99 of 100 homes in the area have K&T, I would NOT buy it and leave it with K&T anywhere.
