As a seller, I never show, let alone inspect, without a Proof of Funds and a Pre-Approval letter from some lender - - specifically to dissuade the parade of lookie-loos who don't have two dimes to rub together. 

If the surviving spouse is incompetent and in a home (likely on our tax dime), has no hiers and the property is free and clear (besides the tax bill) and is being taken care of by the city, you might just find that the county, state, a court or some other jurisdiction has assigned a trustee to administer the trust while she is still alive.

It is managed by the same company I use, They asked if they could fix those two units on my dime and I agreed so hopefully 100% when I close :)It's in a highly desireable area and not much competition.

Every dime counts!

If you're going to have carpets in your rentals, just budget for replacing them on your own dime not more than five years apart.Charge for the actual costs of wall repairs and repainting.Charge for the actual cost of trash removal.Charge for the actual costs of repairs to the closet doors.Charge for to the costs of sprinkler repairsCharge for the costs to repair faucet, assuming it was in good condition before they moved in. 

First of all, I would say that you should not pay a dime for any education unless it is for a book.

To invest out of state, you often have to rely on other people (agents, landlords, turn-key, contractors etc) to add value to the project (find it cheap, rehab it on a dime, tenant screen, manage it) and they get the rewards, while you are left with the crumbs.

Yes @Ralph R. it's pretty hard to believe anyone is serious when they don't put down one dime of EM.

You'll then become (in their minds) the rich landlord who wants to nickel and dime them out of the $18.50 that they don't even believe they owe.

I just personally feel it's nickle and diming people.
