Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

I discovered this property through an acquaintance when it was nearing the end of pre-foreclosure.

It doesn't add layers of physical damage coverage or cover things that wouldn't otherwise be covered.

Where another issue arrises is I recently quit my job after becoming pregnant as they would not cover my maternity while overseas, my husband is employed however he works for a UK company and is British so would be unlikely to help us with the situation in the US.

The only reason to look into franchises that flip houses or do renovations pre-sale is because you have existing business that you could leverage on top of this to add more clientele.

So, if you put in 20K, you could set the bid up to the amount of the 100K total debt(80K existing + 20K additional) to ensure that the property reverts to you as the lender.

@Kristin MathernI would pay it given no keys were provided, it wasn’t specifically addressed/mentioned in your lease, you were provided the opportunity to address/fix yourself with a 25-30 dollar replacement from Lowe’s/Home Depot, and lastly, it was an existing situation that could have been avoided/prevented at move in.

You don't have to answer that, nor can you because it's subjective, but the point I'm trying to make is that they may not view it as a great deal as it currently exists.

Insurance would cover it, I would pay the deductible, and no assets would be lost.If you are in an area like San Diego where people are more likely to sue, a judge is more likely to find you guilty, and the payout is expected to be higher, you may consider an umbrella insurance policy.
