Hey guys just came across a listing that has an animate image or a short video as their cover photo.

It's just a different animal that rehabbing something de the 80's.

Long distance landlording is one thing but long distance rehabbing is a completely different animal

I mainly want them to realize it's not going unnoticed, and start financially off setting some of the wear and tear the animals have created that were noted during inspections. 

This will offset the time of pulling credit, etc...At approval - Lease Preparation Fee, Inspection Fee, Security Deposit, Animal Fee (or Deposit).  

I been reading about single family's but a 4 plex is whole another animal!

There is a separate hydro meter run for it but it is disconnected because the owner said something about animals chewing the electrical wires in the attic.

Only option is to find a reason for non-compliance with lease term and give notice as soon as that happens.As for pets, you could give notice as soon as you take ownership you are have a no pet animal policy and are giving them advance notice of that so you will not be renewing leases for tenants that currently have a animal.. and would be happy to release them out of their lease early with mutual lease termination and 60 day notice. 

yes, stained with a wax coat on top.  

Typically the least you have to do is cap the fireplace chimney to make it weather proof/animal proof, then it's the structure/cosmetics of the room it's in, how much do you need to demo in order to drywall over it to make it disappear.
