I'm not a real investor, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night ...

Eventually, someone will express an interest and have some money.

Lucia, that's exactly what I was trying to get at, I guess I just didn't express myself well in my original post.

The expression "it's not rocket science" is true, but overused to oversimplify REI. 

I used a prep book from Learning Express that I picked up on Amazon, which was used for $8.00.

American Express, Intel and Pfizer are close to that kick out point and Microsoft and Disney are close behind at $16.

(In such a situation, a tenant is entitled to a full refund of the deposit and a rent rebate) • The landlord has made a binding agreement to repair the premises • The landlord’s failure to repair the premises violates the covenant of quiet enjoyment of the premises (see explanation below) • The repairs are for the common areas • The repairs are necessary to correct a dangerous or hidden defect Express PromiseIf the tenant can show an express promise to repair by the landlord and a failure to fulfill that promise, the tenant has some options.

And you can see their facial expression when you ask them things.And don't forget you can see their vehicle in person, but not when you give a lockbox combination.

also, the cable and phone company won't drill holes in your property until they talk to you or you write a letter with expressed consent ( at least, that has been my experience in richmond).

This is also why I have expressed the importance of both buying and selling with the same Realtor.
