Destroyed a wing to the house so obviously that roof line had to be rebuilt.

I'd look into that as they may not even be that bad of tenants.If they are that bad and are the issue,by not paying or destroying the place you may need to go to the landlord tenant board.

I use laminate countertops from Lowes and I don't replace cabinets unless they are really destroyed.

IMHO, it is important to consider underwriting guidelines as well as the information on the consumers credit profile.Chirs M, you would think, I have worked with seasoned loan officers who have destroyed a consumers credit by giving advice that was completely wrong and caused a decline in scores and a lost deal.  

Again, be careful with both your tenants, who will destroy your property, and be careful with your property management company because their margins depend on your units being busted up and needing replacement parts they can upcharge to you (it's just part of the business).

@Nat Chan when the seller realizes they must continue, I would require the expenses  of the lawyer deducted from the purchase price.I would also do a quick inspection to make sure they didn't destroy out of a fit of rage for not getting their way.

While each entity and person has their own payoff reasons for their role, the overriding role is to cripple chattel finance so as to destroy the private ownership of manufactured housing land lease communities.

This could give him a little while to find another place and maybe he will not destroy his unit out of hatred towards me.I worry that if I ask for the property to be vacant he will destroy his unit out of anger.But on the flip side I really don't want to live by this guy... or be his landlord for 3 months. 

New construction can eat a professional's lunch and rehab can destroy rock solid marriages.

@Ingrid Poole - This is the first thing I noticed as well.... the utilities, water, sewer, etc account for 30% of your expenses monthly, and is destroying any cashflow that could be made.
