Hey BP community, Ok, heres the story. While my helper was on your standard rental showing appointment, talking with another interested party, a young woman unlocked the window in one of the bedrooms in the back of th...

When they ask what the issue is you reply the endangering residents is bad enough but then trying to extort an injured tenant harmed in their managed property due to their negligence, wow that's bad BUT then to work to cover it up..... well I'd just hope Ellison is pro-PM and anti tenant, oh yeah, not so much huh.

I was wondering about liability if he gets injured by the condition of the house.

What if you get sick or injured and need to have a medical procedure? 

Later that year, I severely injured a disc in my back and couldn't do construction anymore.

What if you got sick or injured?

Just off the top of my head - tenant(s) stop paying, tenant(s) injure themselves and sue you, major repair in your unit, major repair in another unit damages your unit, HOA decides to not allow rentals anymore, market could tank and you may need that $250k for something else at the same time, etc. 

Risk is part of real estate investing, and sometimes the best looking deals end up being terrible decisions that injure our wallets and our pride.That said, the other side of your dilemma is the dream house.

As far as I know, nobody was injured, but I can't imagine the nightmare it was for the new owners.

There's no landlord-tenant exposure or risk if someone is injured at the property.
