Months down the road it might turn into a great rental, or something else, because the price has been dropping the entire time.

Drop the idea of "wholesaling" a listed property, especially one listed by a BANK.  

There are many factors to consider.Feel free to drop me a PM sometime if you want to connect and discuss further.

My buyer has asked me how the mortgage company will respond and/or reconize the new buyers insurance policy as the note holders insurance is dropped.

Me and my wife were on our way home when we decided to drop by an open house that we saw.

Chris, a drop box won't do much if someone skilled in searches and pretexting wants to locate you.The best was is not to own it, but hold transfer documents and assignments in trust and manage it for compensation by agreement, if you're active, the taxes are the same.

My partner in one company used to do the same thing, he would drop my name, and comment how tough I was, so now its my turn to say that about him.

(Think of that line from Fight Club, "On a long enough timeline the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.")

Include them as a hard cost to the property when calculating rental rates.I agree 100% that the PM should know what utilities are the tenants responsibility and check that they have been paid prior to releasing the Sec Dep.Its my opinion that your PM dropped the ball on this and they should be responsible to pay the sewer bill, and chase down the tenant for the amount owed.

If I wasn't so bothered by bitter freezing temperatures(and being a down right big city girl) it might be a place of interest for me to relocate;-).If you don't mind sharing, what sort of investing are you going to or are doing?
