My local market - most have left or given up.Cash buyers are cherry picking REOS at prices deeper than wholesalers can get from sellers.However, in other markets, cash buyers are buying up the Bulk REOs that I'm dishing out when they are under 20k, except in the really depressed areas of the country.

just because some idiot at the dishwasher manufacturer wants the water hotter for better dish cleaning doesn't mean you should actually do that.Oh, and if you have winter-summer hook-ups on your hot water - you might want to re-think doing that for rentals.

If its anything unused like beer or water bottles or soda I will leave them for myself or the next tenants, throw away all other used items.Check the back patio and tidy up if needed.We leave instructions asking to load and run the dishwasher before departure as well....again 90% or more have done so, and I simply check this and clean anything thats needed, then put away dishes once ready and kind of look around to make sure everything in order.Leave a check for the maids and run all the bed sheets up to a wash and fold service that has them ready usually in 3 hours.That is about it in a nutshell....once you get a routine down its pretty automatic and probably spend no more then 30-45 minutes running through the house dealing with things.

I am looking at two properties, in the same area.Duplex:Listed 67k2 BR UPR 425, includes washer, dryer, stove and ref3 BR LWR 675 includes stove, dish, refRent $1100New roof '10, boiler and baseboard heaters '09.

Would you have the appraisal scheduled immediately while it is 100% occupied (with tenants leaving dirty dishes and clutter everywhere) or 2. would you rather show it with the downstairs vacant, but with a signed lease showing it will be occupied within a month and the unit professionally cleaned and staged (it is a furnished unit)what would be the best bet in order to get a higher appraisal?

I had the idea to get a satellite TV account and connect 4 receivers to one dish, and include TV with the rent.

Can you imagine going to a restaurant with a specific dish in mind (for me that would be Wok-seared lamb/beef) and the waiter consistently tries to push a bologna sandwich instead?

Thats is why its always best to document repair request, such as the dish washer.

BYUtv is on dish and direct as well as 500 cable companies around the country and televised into 150 countries around the world.

Now they own a property with a non-paying occupant, before they simply had a non-performing loan but had to dish out extra money to actually own it.
