Ultimately what you can possibly do is tell your tenant on the lease that gave notice that if the other person stays they will be on the hook for eviction costs, rent owed ,judgments, and wage garnishment.They need to get that person OUT before they leave the unit.No legal advice but if you spook them some they might leave on their own.

Not worth the hassle and once the buyer is spooked about a possible exploding water heater, it won't matter whether YOUR  interpretation of the code is correct or not

The seller may not give you access until you are under contract so as not to spook their tenants.  

With contingencies, that is a fair offer that would let me renegotiate or walk away if I found something that spooked me.

We were still in phase 3 at that point, and prices didn't peak until May of 2007, even though volume started falling in November 2005 (which combined with the fact every buyer I sold to was using a pay option arm was enough to spook me).Given that we have not yet seen a similar decline in volume, and  since it took 18 months from volume declining in earnest to the market top, I think there is a good chance to think calling a top now >might< be a little premature.

Whatever you think about Russia and Ukraine, it's a fact that the US and Canada have confiscated private property pretexting sanctions while Mexico refused to play along, as that would have been an infringement on property rights.So, when looking at the past and the facts, which government is most likely to confiscate your property or curtail your civil liberties.

He can tell the tenants whatever he likes, but what works best (if he's afraid of spooking them) is to tell them he's having an appraisal done for insurance adjustment, refi loan....what ever.

Hello,@Lee Fahy I understand he doesn't want to spook his tenants, but, I would definitely want to get a quick peak at the apartments.

I also went to a free REIN info session, but got a tad spooked by the hefty price tag attached to it. 

Your tenant was spooked because of the break in, which sometimes happens.
