(I think the jury just split the baby, felt there were huge damages but difficult liability) It easily could have turned into a multi-million dollar verdict with another bad fact or two.

Since this is an REO sale, there will be all kinds of outs for the bank on their contract addendums, so you probably wouldn't have any damages claim against them, and there is probably some reference in your contract to the condo doc.s.

No damage beyond wall cracks were done to the units either.~30% of the roof was patched mainly where low spots collected water and pulled material away from the flat roofs edges.

Plus, if you pay them to move out, they wont be doing any additional damage on their way out...I have a 4plex in Loma Linda, CA, directly adjacent to Loma Linda University and Medical Center, that I will be listing for sale next summer or sooner.

Sue for damages yourself if it was that bad and you wanted to head it off at the pass.

I would ask him what his thoughts are about the damage, get his side of the story and see what he thinks about who should pay for repairs.

Haven't figured carpet, much of it was replaced due to damages and fell on the tenant, hallway at $200 in 7 years is change.

The issue is that it's so easy for a tenant to cost me thousands in damage and unpaid rent and there's very little I can do to collect it later.

If not then a judge can usually only grant eviction and not a judgment for back rent and damages against the tenant.

Yes dear, that dress makes you look very nice, you don't look fat in it.
