This was a clean foreclosure property, which is usually difficult to find.

I know they are crazy guest friendly but this seems over the top.Guest didn't deny it....responded with "I payed the cleaning fee, why would I clean up?"

And when someone tries to clean it up, he’s attacked with the most childish and ridiculous name calling possible.  

A few years ago one of the investors who had multiple properties in Manhatan Beach CA, then Phoenix AZ, who has been doing it for 30-40 years told me: " A property does not really cash flow till its paid off"Honestly, I am looking at my properties, and half of my properties cash flow anywhere from 800-1k, but the remaining dont cash flow at all..Honestly, I cant say that even those that do cash flow 800-1k per month do not really make a big impact because a tenant moves out, I have to clean/fix, etc.

Talk to other clients, go look at his current job site and see how clean it is, the quality of work, if the order of operations is making sense so far, etc.PS I'm a GC in the Nashville area and can take on a handful of clients in 2025 if you need me.

When we create our business plan, we also include our exit plan.We'll only proceed if we can clean this up, acquire new tenants at higher rents so we can increase our NOI, which in turn should reflect our cap rate and profits.Since this asset class is new to us we will tread cautiously.Scheduled to preview tomorrow. 

Best way to find end buyers is to ensure it's well marketed - Professional photos, professional clean prior to listing, aggressive list pricing.
