The money was conditioned on a checklist that I gave them prior to the close that detailed what the exact conditions of each of the requirements were, "broom-clean, free of debris, all seller-owned appliances left in good working order" etc.Many of the tenants, knowing that the bank would likely evict them in a few months anyway, were cooperative enough to leave the property in "not-horrible" condition.

Let's say you want me to climb a tall ladder to clean the gutters.  

So when I hear on the podcast of investors talking about umbrellas and leveraging their money on a 30 year mortgage like @David Greene am I to assume they are NOT wrapping those properties up into an LLC then?

Lower end rentals, clean and works are all I care about.

@Matt ShamusThanks for the support...We got the seller to replace roof and gutters as part of the deal, other than that just some light clean up in laundry areas. 

You can extend the length between the buy and sell transactions to perform limited repairs or clean-outs to sell it for even higher, even though it costs you a few hundred dollars.

I always explain to the tenant that no matter kind of dog it is, there will need to be professional cleaning after they move out.

It seems to me you take the hit now or over the new few months waiting for the eviction to process, for them to actually leave, and repair the unit as I'm sure it at least needs some heavy cleaning from the description of the living conditions provided.Good luck!

Hello.I purchase all year round if numbers make since I don't care what's the season money is green everyday..So if you got something shoot it my way

I was thinking of making rent all inclusive with rent, utilities, cable, internet, cleaning services and household common area shopping( toilet paper, soap etc).
