If the tenant is a bona-fide tenant then find out if they are paying rent, how much and see if it meets what your mortgage payment is.

But if your like me and I take it your self  a bona fide buyer then you do have the right to do this.I only did it because I paid the ladies back taxs to the toon of 40k.. and then she went dark.. and of course I had a nice equity play there... but had I just had refundable EM up I would have just moved on.

Account Closed  terrible advice... its one thing to be a bona fide buyer and another being a wholesaler trying to make middle man fee's with no real ability to close.clouding title is a bush league move.. unless you are buying it put up a ton of EM and seller is backing out then you can sue for performance... however probably not many have ever done this..

Do a good faith inspection to determine if there is any merit to the claim, not because it is a bona fide excuse for not paying rent, but because it's what good landlords do.

There are a lot of variables, including state and local law and whether or not the occupant is really the borrower or a bona fide tenant (or family member of the borrower).
