When banks fail to run their business properly, are gifted money by the gov-mint to make up for their mistakes, ruin the economy temporarily, and then SCREW UP the foreclosure by not hiring competent people to execute things properly I tend to not have much sympathy for them.

If wood sub-floors you might have other issues as well...Stefan, It's on a slab...I'm definitely planning to find/stop the leak first so that whatever I end up doing doesn't just get ruined again.

The tenant wanted us to cover some blinds she bought that got ruined.

Be careful with laminate as it can get water damage easily from spilled cups/kids/pets and tenants often use the wrong cleaners on it which can ruin the look in less than a year. 

A bucket will help prevent a roof leak from ruining a subfloor any more if it is localized and can be a good short term solution for a vacant property that you intend to own in the future. 

This is to ensure that the residence has been maintained well and to also ensure that the tenant has not ruined the property.

I too own a condo and recently had a sewer drain overflow that ruined the carpet.

I have a tenant with cancer in one of my parks.

For me it would be one of the cancer charities, my partner just went through it, long journey it was very hard on her but luckily she caught it early.

If you find a good enough deal you should be confident to close on it if needed, otherwise you will ruin your reputation and you will find agents not wanting to work with you.
