What people do in Detroit it they buy a house for 5000 or they contact a turnkey operator that sells them a house for 40 to 70k with shotty work and guaranteed returns aka Section 8 then wonder why the house in in a warzone, and tenants destroy their house.

Most zoning me will say if more than 50% is destroyed in a fire or disaster, you have six months or a year to fix it.

Section I items are items that have existing damage due to wood destroying pests and organisms (termites, fungus, dry rot, etc).

Maybe the owner is old-school and only uses a rental sign with no bg/credit checks: He's got huge vacancy rates and rents way under the market to people who destroy his units.

It's what you don't know that can destroy your ability to invest again. 

We just have no idea what to do.We are worried that she will destroy the house moving her things out.

However, the home has been absolutely destroyed.

The locks I had installed on the property were destroyed and new locks installed with a key box attached to the handle 2 days ago.

Then something on title, structural or environmental could pop up on a deal and literally destroy it.
