Lease violations and non-payment of rent are contractual breaches and outside circumstances of the tenant should not affect the judgement.

use your best judgement. before i end the call, i always remind them that i'm ready to buy and ask they to get me a call if they find something.

I ran the numbers and agreed to purchase site un-seen (trusted her judgement + pictures / videos + numbers worked).2021 Jan - closed on it, JV-ed with a money partner and with a contractor (known to me)5 bed / 2 bath / 1 acre / semi-rural bungalow / Petawawa, ON, Canada162K PP / 70K reno / 30K financing, closing, transfer tax / 292K selling price2021 June - Sold & exitedMade a 30K profit - split 3-ways.While working on this, I signed for my second, third and fourth flips. 

First, I am spending money to file in court and then taking my time to show up to court and then hoping I can force them to pay the judgement which is FAR FAR from certain.

I made an error in judgement assuming there were no offers based on the information I had.  

It rained yesterday and I have no flooding in the upstairs rooms but I have standing water in the basement.

Nobody on here can give you accurate info on pricing in this situation unfortunately, you'll need to rely on your structural engineer and repair contractors for this, then make a judgement call on your own. 

you all who are  being judgemental please remember these people come from a far away place, please try to be nice to the visitors as clearly they are missionaries of some sorts, not sure what thiier mission is ?

The number you are seeing is probably that lenders judgement amount, but it may be their maximum bid.

It would seem that If I have each applicants profile and I am comparing them like for like and making sure to not make judgements that may violate fair housing and ensuring that I am approving or denying based on facts present in the application and a list of criteria that I have this would give be the best opportunity to select a strong candidate rather than skipping over them because I denied them with no information on what would be presented as the next candidate.
