Not in the US with Corporate law, that's how we get things like 30 yrs of intentional dumping of wildly toxic waste ins ay, a pond, because the fines are cheaper than proper disposal.

When talking to new folks it boils down to the big three for me below:Previous experience (what do they know that will be useful)Network (who do they know)Resources at their disposal (what do they bring to the table in terms of capital, time, information, etc.)While many investors love working with new folks it often boils down to "what can they do for me".

I just cut it off close as possible with circle saw and spliced on and supported allIts easy to dispose of bad stuff here yet,,,thats why it should be disposed now if possible and in making your floor solid.Double bagged is all required and hauled directly to landfill with appointment.

You need to look at the (personal property disposal laws) for your state.

Yes don't just assume because it is junk or that utilities are off that they have left.Even if they don't live their some use the space for free storage.Each state has specific property disposal laws that must be followed.So make sure you are following the laws and procedures OF YOUR STATE and not someone else's experience from another state which might not apply.I can tell you in the state of Georgia that if it appears 500 or more of property is leftover you must file for eviction.Your local eviction attorney will help you from your state on what is required.Don't assume things.When you assume things that's when it gets expensive!

Would not call it landlord or tenant friendly, but new laws passed looks like starting to lean more on landlord side of things -- partial payments won't stop eviction if stated in lease, easing on rules for disposal of tenant property left in home, more things able to be deducted from security deposit, etc.

Let's call it what it is, an albatross that should be disposed of in this and future discussion....and then we can all move forward.  

This is a great community... and as a service member, you have some great tools at your disposal for getting started in RE investing.

This is very locally dependent....type of construction, disposal costs, etc.  

My wife has a source of passive income that's not insignificant and any additional income she would make from working is pretty much disposable income.
