For some reason, so many people think there is all this mysterious stuff that goes on which requires lawyers, real estate brokers, title companies, politicians and magicians to resolve.

its wasted would be the correct answer....you both are implying i don't care about tenants or my properties, both being false...how you made that leap is a mystery, i work incredibly hard and moat tenants know me on a first name basis. i fix things completely and competently and often will work out payment plans to avoid evictions. i was simply discussing the city itself....fyi, has your house been robbed of its copper/appliances lately?

You might have done it for some special effect but anytime someone on here posts a dark pic or uses the default icon, or their icon it puts a cloud of mystery over them and not in a good way.

Here are a few I see:Pros for Rehab: You get to see and correct the condition of the house immediately, you get to screen your tenants before giving them the keysCons for Rehab: time and $$ in rehab work, no income until you can find tenants for itPros for Tenants: Income right away and no need for immediate rehab (hopefully)Cons for Tenants: Do due diligence to ensure income-generation (evaluate lease and rent details), mystery quality tenants, unable to fully inspect house conditionWhere would you begin?

If you didn't know these few nuggets when you started your day today, you can finish the day knowing you increased your knowledge:)If any of the below applies, you won't qualify for conventional financing*S/E <2yrs*Non warrantable condo because of investor concentration or ownership %*Low AGI or other tax related issues*>10 financed properties*Just purchased property, renovated it and want to use new appraised valueThere may be a few other reasons to not qualify for conventional financing, but that's about it I thinkIf you know these things going in, it shouldn't be a mystery coming out right?  

True...thing is I know that there are a few properties listed in the name of the individual who has defaulted and they have furnished profit/ loss statements etc because they are self employed...mysteriously they have not listed any other assets ( including the apt building that they are collecting income from that I already found about prior to contact) and I understand how the "game" works, I wonder what others have done when presented w this kind of issue?

Thank you Jeff, mystery solved.....

Mysterious" issues rarely have a "quick fix" ...

Some people think they will have hard time evicting someone, or be mean if they have to, so they call themselves managers and the owner is some mystery guy...lol. 

It's a mystery.
