I had a sudden need to move 80 miles away.

All of a sudden, the floodgates of tenants will open.

Were they paying prior and suddenly stopped?

This is easily solved by working with a competent lender, but it is a thing to be aware of.If you try to split it up and pick two different lenders, the one set to close second may not close at all because the loan officer, underwriter, and underwriting manager are going to get pings saying "Albert D. is suddenly $300k more in debt at the last minute and this was not disclosed to us zomg!!!"

They attribute this to a slowing of the 2 year surge in real estate prices.And the report further says that distressed homes account for the lowest percentage of sales since 2008.Darren Blomquist, vice president at Realty Trac said, "The flippers formula is to buy a property that they can add value to at a discount and sell at a premium. 

Judge lambasted the tenant for 20 minutes about having somebody come get the child, how did he think they could possibly have a hearing with a child in the courtroom, did he not understand that no children are permitted in the courtroom, etc.Judge continued until the next day and told the tenant that if they brought their child again, the judge would not permit the hearing to happen and the tenant would be considered as a no-show.Suddenly the tenant who couldn't find a sitter was suddenly able to do so.

In general i'm concerned with the sudden rental surge.

You will suddenly start finding some good deals just off the MLS. 

In general we get a little market surge here when the weather warms up in the Spring so I expect values to stay stronger if not inch up further.

When the age starts to show and suddenly the capex starts creeping up?
