I know I can tell them to pound sand since I went through all the legal venues to get them out.Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.Thank you 

Hey guys,I've been doing the numbers for a few properties, and I'm wondering what type of CAP rates you usually tend to want with a decently maintained clean house with hardly any issues.Some of the homes that I've recently looked at have decent CAP rates but the amount of work that needs to be put into them makes them undesirable (Water damage, caving in floors, Leaks and Roofs going bad).What is a CAP rate you usually end up getting with your properties and or look for in any properties?

The lender's going extract a pound of flesh in the form of a significant credit hit and possible deficiency judgments.

I know a similar situation has happened in NYC too with people getting priced out of areas that at one time would of been considered undesirable or cheap. 

However, since you mentioned California and lots located in desert-like zones, I would say that those are proberly undesirable ones for you.
