As soon as they ethically and legally help a seller avoid foreclosure, and do everything they promised to do on time, the seller will turn on them and start complaining about some perceived injustice, calling them a con artist.If you can live with being treated like garbage by the very people who would have been thrust out on the street like vagabonds in the middle of winter without two pennies to rub together were it not for you bending over backwards and risking your butt to save them with an overly generous arrangement that’s better than 99% of other investors would ever consider doing, then by all means, go ahead.If the irony of explaining something multiple times in clear, direct language, and having them read and initial every paragraph of a painstakingly understandable, notarized CYA letter, contract to SELL, and Lease Agreement, only to be threatened with legal action because they claim they didn’t know they were selling their house does not make you ashamed to belong to the same human race, then proceed.If you’re going to do it, just know the following things:1) No matter how intelligent, sensible, and responsible you believe a seller to be, they will mutate into something else entirely the very second you advance funds and solve their problem, to the same extent, and with the same speed and ferociousness as Bilbo Baggins in the first Lord of the Rings movie.2) You will go from benevolent savior to despicable con artist within 1 week after closing.3) They will almost always stop returning your calls once you have solved their problem, which makes collecting rent or qualifying them for a loan more difficult.4) They will understand the terms of the sale and lease with 100% certainty, until the closing has occurred, at which point something which scientists do not yet comprehend alters the chemistry of their brain and supplants their true memories with false ones.

Sure, it's got chrome footboards and piston rings, and tassles that were hand made by a descendent of the last Sioux chief...but I aint paying for that garbage chrome crap.

With that said, the are is more of a likelihood of a vacant house getting broken into, however that happens in the outer ring burbs as well.  

@Jordan Champion why are the lenders saying that you don't qualify?  

Ring: mostly use this to monitor contractors/vendors but comes in handy and is great for peace of mind. 

You can set up a number with a recording in the ad via Ring Central (I have NO affiliation) and it's pretty simple.Also, here's an article I wrote that you might find useful - it's on how to stand out from your competition when you wholesale:http://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/4430/blog_posts/32194-attention-wholesalers-2-ways-to-stand-out-from-your-competition

The Ring Cities surrounding Detroit. 

And you didn’t answer the question that was asked you just tried to tell me I was ring in my approach again your way isn’t the only way and I’m always doing my thing.

Leak wasn’t a gusher, just a few little drops every 8-9 mins… Also is the toilet wax ring/bolts/supply line replacement- which was not due to misuse or abuse or damages, just age-the responsibility of the moved-out tenant to pay (taken out of security deposit)?
