But for vacant properties, I think a 'show and go' policy would be ideal: the buyer’s agent can confirm directly with the listing agent, and then they’re free to view the property without delay.

I deal with all the paperwork and the negative side like chasing unpaid rent and such but my property manager is amazing and deals with the day to day inspections, fixes, tours and most the communication.

Can you share your experiences on inheriting less than ideal long-term tenants after purchasing a property and how you got through it or resolved it?

Seems like anytime after 2010 and before 2022 would have been an ideal time. 

@Michele RichardChicago neighborhoods and suburbs are ideal for rental properties and Building Reconstruction Redevelopment (BRRRRR) due to proximity to major development projects, affordable multi-family units, and strong rental demand.

I'm not so much a DIY type when it comes to legal matters so I am looking for an experienced attorney who specializes in tax foreclosures - ideally in that county.

If you’ve ever though of retiring outside of California that could be the ideal place to buy a “nicer” property that someday may work better as a primary than a rental.

Ideally, we'd love to find a duplex or multi-family property with the potential to live in and rent out.

You ideally don't want you purchase price + rehab budget to exceed 60-65% of the ARV to properly BRRRR, as most of the time you'll only be able to refinance at 75% of the ARV.

An ideal bank would  allows one to set aside tenant's deposit money in a separate account that earn decent interest and is landlord friendly.
