I had similar concerns as a noob 16 years ago, what if I can't find a renter.

They are people and have needs/concerns too.

Thanks, and that is what I’m so concerned about, is issuing 1099’s (either myself or CPA) in error and really causing a mess for the person receiving them.

The only concern we run into is occasional foundation issues near the river, towards the south east side of town.

I've never done this before, and I'm not finding a lot of info on the subject here on BP, especially as it pertains to Missouri specifically. 

A purchase agreement is a waste of time and energy and complicates the issue for Harry Homeowner.This is not a beginner strategy as there are federal laws concerning approaching debtors who have been given a notice of foreclosure.

Hmmmmmmmm but no concern on count down to get far away from this unlovely, and un- cared for place.

I think this is what I was inadvertently concerned about (super newbie).

Years ago, my elderly neighbor expressed his concern to me about our trees leaning towards his home and that he wasn't trying to be a pain. 

I think the market has shifted in most areas, and "too much cash flow" isn't really a concern anywhere with interest rates where they are, whether in Alabama or California.
