The only slim chance possibility here is if you have experience and are well versed in doing cash for keys and evictions properly, which I specialized in during my tenure there but it’s not for everyone.

@Miriam De HaroThis situation sucks and $1250 is a hard pill to swallow, however I do not see eye to eye with you on how to resolve this.

Pickin's are slim.

Your margins are slim. 

It's going to be slim pickings around this area as far as I have seen. 

I'm currently in southwest Washington, but want to live in downtown Seattle or Pill Hill or Madison Park.  

If the world steps back and takes a collective chill pill, again "duh".     

Everett has pretty slim pickings at this point, the small-multi market heated up and all of the good MLS deals were grabbed over the last few months, we could see things open up a bit in the spring though.Forget about Seattle, darn near impossible to find a cash-flow property on the MLS at this point.The Tacoma-Auburn area still has many intriguing possibilities, I would concentrate my search in that area if you're looking for a solid income opportunities.

If you don't have skin in the game, the odds of finding success are very slim.

That's a MIGHTY slim margin!
