We got rid of him a few months later after jacking his rent up.Good luck.

Less than an hour later I received a call from my sister asking for help in arranging an accommodation for them as the place ‘they’ were moving to not ready when the truck reached there.

Based on the overwhelming response, I should have just taken the keys and walked through the property at a later date.

Buyer 2 buys another property John owned a year later, same circumstance of sale.

For example lets say the property I bought went to the auction on September and I bought it 3 months later on December, would I have the pay the taxes that accumulated over those 3 months while it was on the strike off list plus the minimum bid? 

I signed up for this website to gain more knowledge about real estate investing as I am a young professional looking to figure out a way to have passive income later on in my life.

I've read the code quite a bit and even talked to the zoning department (very surprised when they called back, albeit a day later).

Some of the repairs were very silly:-A strip of wood on the exterior laundry door isn't painted and she says it needs to be fixed-The fridge ice maker doesn't work and she was told this when she inspected and now 6 months later she's demanding it produce ice-They have mice and want me to exterminate although it's a SFRI provided 48 hours written notice we would be attending to repairs.I arrived at the appointment time with 2 contractors to get everything done.

I'm looking to start out doing buy-and-hold properties then later going into small apartment properties.  

I chose the secure path years ago concentrating on my career in the Oil & Gas business while raising my children with intentions on picking it up again later in my career.
