They had ripped the window AC unit out and broken the door in and stolen the few possession she had.

The agent was not notified and didn't find out until the tenants went to take possession.

If the buyer, or a member of their immediate family, is planning to occupy the house as their primary residence they may be able to ask for vacant possession or to terminate the leases once they take possession.  

I think the idea of a reverse mortgage is that one day your parents will die and their estate will sell their home (or other property/possessions) to repay the loan.Would you care to share more details?

A gentleman was introduced to me through a family member that has a large portfolio of apartment buildings has decided to dissolve his trust because his family doesn't want to deal with the tax implications of either taking possession or selling the properties on his passing.

You have way more time, advertising rights, possession rights, rights to improve, and low carrying costs....some pretty important components of retail sales.

You don't close unless the seller has moved and left the property vacant of all personal possessions.

Normally you would after the 60th day and you don't have possession, post a notice to them and proceed to eviction.

If you can prove that the only occupants are the previous owners you can file a motion for a writ of possession without going through a full eviction.

I love that strategy because I sometimes get immediate possession.
