@Nicholas L.thanks a lot for responding so quickly!

We sold the house quite quickly at a reasonable profit.Lessons learned?

This allows entry without a key, and allows me to change the lock as needed if I don't want someone in there.As an agent, I provide contacts to my clients who will do these things, and occasionally I will do favors for past clients who need someone to open the door or quickly supervise an appointment; of course not all agents will do this or for free.  

Since it’s a new build, I was able to negotiate some great perks, like a 5.875% interest rate, no closing costs, a fridge, blinds, and even a backyard firepit.Pros:Good school districtLow interest rateMinimal CapEx and repairs (because it’s a new build)Low insuranceHigh-quality tenants (due to the school district and being a new build)Cons:Lots of new builds in the area, which could drive down prices and increase vacanciesThe Numbers:Price: $290KInterest Rate: 5.875%Down Payment: 25%Monthly Mortgage + Insurance + Taxes + HOA: $1,480 (I got really low insurance since it’s a new build and Alabama’s property taxes are low)Property Management: 10%Rent: $1,800 (this is under market because I wanted to rent it quickly—most units in the area were sitting vacant for 100+ days.

Buffalo changes very quickly block to block (not just ZIP by ZIP) and it is crucial that you understand this prior to writing any checks. 

If they are professional, they can explain this quickly and easily.

They represent you.A quick call to a local real estate attorney may be helpful.

If you feel confident in the tenants signing those long term leases, this is a slam dunk and you'll have a cash cow on your hands very quickly!

William, sounds like the Land Riches blueprint covers a lot!

You may have to evict which is generally the course it goes but do something/everything (legally available) to cure this quickly.
