We do hope to do more of these going forward and I will probably need an attorney to handle the evictions for us at some point. 

I am putting an offer on the property and would like to bring the $325 unit up to par but don’t know how to handle the tenant.

This park is fairly small so either you will need to manage it or have a part-time manager nearby to handle issues when they inevitably arise.

Would anyone in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area be able to kindly recommend a title and escrow company to me that handles assignment contracts ?

The GC has handled fire damage jobs before and guaranteed me he could do the inside of the house (and fill in a pool in the backyard) for 100KThe numbersPurchase $10K Rehab $100K ARV $150KI have the money for the purchase and some of the rehab.

Now, as there is no 100% safe investment with high return the question is how can you handle a streak of bad luck when your investment does not produce what you expected?

They do not take the time to know what a tenants needs really are let alone how to handle a tenant that might be overly needy or unreasonably demanding.Accounting — I have to audit the statements on a regular basis.  

@Joe Villeneuve  in the great GFC  mass foreclosures were a result of tenants not paying in many markets... and under capitalized and underwater owners.. defaulted with many ruining their credit for years because they did not realize that they needed substantial reserves to handle vacant properties... then you add in the areas were vacant properties get trashed and stripped then there was no hope for the owners.If you look at most homes that you buy today.. at least 50% of them are failed landlords that walked... this is true all through the mid west.So one needs to not just think that if there is a melt down again everyone becomes renters this did not play out that way last time... many left the area  ( think PhX Vegas) Many ended up moving in with family... 

Try a whole house air exchanger, they pull air out while bringing in fresh air. the one i linked to i have used in one of my units to meet the building code for fresh air, this one can handle a 2,000 sq' home. this may help and only costs a few hundred dollars.

I know here in Orange County when agents list land, many times they are residential agents and don't have a clue as to what it takes to actually bring the parcel to the point of being able to build, therefore; price it at the price of a lot ready to go. if a developer has to go in and do $150,000 (sometimes more) on dirt work, etc. the project has to be able to handle it.
