You do not actually need any income if they have high enough income to afford their bills plus your new house.

Isn't it unlikely that a homeowner who cant afford a 2-3k tax bill would even challenge this legally?

It can depend on the property, but owner paying the bills seems rare these days. 

Currently, I am looking at Hemlame for local, I tried to use them for an out-of-state investment property, but the cost with an agent would end up far greater than a full-service property manager.The dream option would combine all accounting, bill pay, rent collection, provide eviction services, and maintenance coordination outside of normal hours.

New year, new laws (Senate bills 205, 206 & 207).Effective January 2, 2025, Michigan landlords can no longer consider a tenant's source of income when screening them.

About 3 months have gone by and we just received an email from a communications company billing us $4,000 for breaking a communication line buried in the yard.

Most wholesalers do not have the means to pay their credit card bills not to mention purchase a multimillion-dollar real estate investment.

I just wasn't sure if it is my responsibility to do something if the electric bill is high and are not satisfied. do I have to be concerned about that?

Why was the bill so high?
