Attend in person, bid, if you win you have to pay right then via a cashiers check.

It seems more your fault for choosing the "lying" contractors from the tenants point of view, if you ask them to pay up, I'm sure they would.

Going to guess the $797 is rent only, with tenant paying utilities.

Being part Alaska Native, there was incentive where they would pay your down payment and we utilized that tool!

The problem with metrics is that there is no one metric that fits all investors and situations.Looking at some of the enervation shows on TV, the price they pay and what they put into the property would never work in the markets we have experience in.  

We all know they won't ever pay.

And I understand (I think) your making interest only payments until you pay back the loan?

As a result, if that carrier goes under and is unable to pay claims, the state is not required to backstop the policy.

You might be surprised, but your rental properties have more in common with dividend-paying stocks than you think!

Quote from @Don Bessette: I have a 30 plus year tenant that can not keep up with maintaining their unit, it is filthy inside and in desperate need of renovation, all systems are in good repair and I respond very quickly when issues are brought to my attention.It is also well below market rent, and they struggle to pay the current rate.Looking for suggestions on how to gently proceed with the notification to move.
