I presume doing that work well is also key to your ratings and feedback.

No matter how you try and wrap your mind around it, if you're not going to be there, you're biggest risk will be trusting the other person on the ground, presumably your contractor, to ensure everything goes smoothly on time and on budget.

From your perspective then as somebody who I presume understands it in and out, have you yourself used this strategy on an investment property.

If the loan is being paid off, the mortgage company would presumably not have an interest in whether the roof is replaced or not.

I presume the utilities aren't metered seperatly, so if that's the case, they will have to be landlord paid.

I have tried to send several letters to the address on file and even a post office box that is presumed to be related to the property and all have been returned to sender.

Jesse Brown Since you live in the most expensive area in the country, can I presume that you intend to execute this rehab & hold strategy from long-distance?

Presumably that property has or will have a tenant paying rent.

If you spend the additional $9k your break-even will presumably be $699k and you seem confident the property will sell for at least that.You don’t say what the alternative is.

But as far as selling or not, there will be less impact on price before new regulations are announced, than after, presumably.
