I recall hearing they dont like that....but at any given time I have at least 3-4 offers standing on REO's and in the incidence they got accepted at the same time (I wish!)

However I have had 3 frightening incidents in Latin countries, especially Mexico, that make me really distrustful of their ability (or desire) to safeguard people.

REALTOOLS is a great option for a smaller operation:- Unlimited Properties (Single & Multi-unit)- Tenants with Contacts and Incidents- Leases (including section 8 and Lease Options)- Mortgages (Fixed rate, ARM, Interest Only, Prepayments)- Work Orders with History- Great customer support (I've had questions usually answered in a day)- etc. etc. etc.

You might want to read the Police/Fireman call public records for home fires, theft, or other incidents that might make a resident want to sell short.

It would not surprise me to learn the HO is just waiting for such an incident so he CAN sue.

To make matters worse, there is violence occurring on nearly a daily basis and one of these incidents in the last couple of weeks involved a gun.

Initiating an eviction in response to an incident such as this is generally not a good idea.

Before you closed you should have analyzed how long this tenant has been there and payment history.If they pay on time and pay market rent and have been there a long time costs to recondition the property will be high and it will take awhile to get them out at the holidays with the court systems taking time off.I would just moniter it for a little while and see how things go.If it's a small dog usually you don't have to worry unless a bite history exists with animal control.If it's a big dog or aggressive breed you definitely want them out as you could be sued and held liable should you not take action and an incident happens.

I managed to get one rehabbed and sold 2 years ago without incident.

Had 0 incidents.
