He repeatedly kept saying he was the best, and anytime I needed work he would say his contractors are the best.issues with  the house: Foundations caving it with countless stress fractures and rooms sinking in with doors sticking making them nearly impossible to open. 35 years of vacancy at that house led to house walls being filled with mice... they chewed on the electrical wires and chewed holes in every wall and next to outlet covers and they chewed the entiee inner door frame from tbe walkup attic giving them easy access to walls throughout the house.

Closing costs and 10% down chewed up about $60k of my $100k. 

I will show you how to chew it" Good grief!

Mice don't chew perfectly round holes - that was made by a drill.I couldn't possibly get rid of this tenant because then I'd lose all the stories.

I have had experience with my clients doing BRRRR and, especially out of state, is much more than they can chew.
