sub too wrap lease option etc.. is a fine method but in my mind only to be used by very financially capable folks.. not folks that are trying to get rich on OPM and no credit.. and in some states the persona with the lease option can hole up and judge may make the lessee do a foreclosure giving the lessor a right to cure..   

@Chris Mason Since we've been in a really strong market.....if Im making an offer on a property where I can get an appraisal contingency (suburbs I can, city I cant) and I know the listing agent is going to be subpar and not get the property to appraise (in my opinion this is the listing agents #1 duty) Ive been putting into the contract "seller will cure any appraisals issues that arise by making any required repairs and adjusting the price down to the appraisal value."  

Word of advice: Consider taking down your images and blocked out your name and address.Contact the city and let them know you corrected the violating by removing it; see if that is enough to cure the violation, if not, comply with their request. 

I had an agent friend trying to buy an REO, got stalled by “title problems” no timeline to cure......a quick search of the foreclosure file showed they forgot to name a junior mtg in the foreclosure...they were going back into court to vacate the foreclosure, start again naming the junior mtg holder, yada yada.....6 months minimum.

First and foremost, accepting even a partial payment after the cure period has lapsed is not a good idea unless you are in a state that specifically allows such.

We do a walk through within hours of closing and do a hold-back of funds to cure any defects like trash out or eviction.If the parties agree that the seller can stay for a period of time, we execute a "use and occupancy" agreement that details the per diem cost, utilities, insurance, etc. 

You should "surprise" her with your local version of a 5 day notice to cure.

It's important to understand, there is no cure for sexual deviants.

If you start the eviction process and he/she cures the default by paying in full before the eviction is finalized they are still liable for you being out the money to start the process.I hope this helps and good luck.

I plan to give them 2 weeks to cure their default for all violations including their dirty place and start doing regular inspections.
