If after adding the additional monthly recurring costs (electricity, gas, water, internet, insurance, lawn care, snow plowing, etc.) to the standard long-term costs (Mortgage, taxes, regular insurance, etc.) the property won't net at least $100 if I can get the average rent I see on FF for that area, then the property isn't worth more investigation.

Few more points:Their lease is valid till May 2025.This is the first time she even told me about mold.In the email she did ask me to settle the lease.I have a little less than a month of rent as security deposit, which I am ready to settle without any additional penalties for abandoning the property.At this point I am okay with her leaving the place, just I want to get the control of the property back to fix the mold issue.History:1) Recently the AC has been replaced and after that there was some intermittent issue with the installation (temp doesn’t reach target intermittently) and I had to call the tech back 5 times to finally get it resolved.2) Also last month I replaced electric range with Brand new Electric range.3) Two months back she said the refrigerator was leaking, I asked her to send picture of the make and mode of the refrigerator, but I never got a reply back.4) Also for last 4-5 months she has been asking me to send her 5-day notice so that she can claim reimbursement, I was sharing a document and she was paying the rent a little late.
