It was a no brainer to marry her.

Holding a property for a year with HM loan is a no-go.

For example, if you wanted to now implement a no-pet policy, assuming the resident doesn't already have a pet, now would be the time to implement that.

Cat hoarding.I've seen this before, lost track of the number is right.All cats were surrender by her to homes as pets, with help of the local fire department volunteers catching them with heavy fireman gloves and crating them while she was off the premises--with her permission.The crates came from a no kill shelter, who also worked to re-home them after vet checkups and fixing.They ALL went to (good) homes as pets.It took an intervention type thing to get her to release the cats, but she knew she could not take care of that many, and they were not as well off as if they lived with families as ones, two or threes.From discovery to re-homing about 1 month. 

Back in the day, when I told her about me doing the same (taking money out of SD account) she all but slapped me around about how big of a No-No that was. 

Since I could recognize value-add opportunity, these were a no brainer.

I think it really depends on the deal.. if your just getting a so so deal and or basically retail treat it as such.. large seller hold back and rental agreement.if its a smoking deal your goal is to get title and worry about it later.. if that includes renting them a U haul and some helpers then that's a no brainer..

If you're a landlord, and you're going to manage yourself, you have to take a no-nonsense attitude. 

Would you take a 20 mile drive, and be a no-call-no-show at work, for the hope of getting $500 after a couple months worth of work/follow up?

@Jay Hinrichs Wow you gave these guys 5k directly just to bring you a no-deal?
