Change the locks, start your renovations while they are there, hang dry wall and sand it, notify all the neighbors to keep an eye out on the property and to call you if they see any issues, make sure the toilet flashes, sometimes something gets stuck in the vent line, like a bird or tennis ball that causes a problem, replace the water lines (this requires no water service until completion).Sell a "wolf ticket" meaning to sue them, or other threats... 

Sometimes a property purchased as a long-term investment ends up being a money pit, or the rental demand dries up in your market.

It's very dry, but kind of cool, at least compared to California.

No money out of pocket and if something changes, they drop you, or whatever, like @Michael Baum suggests, you're high and dry either on the hook for a lease and/or left with a bunch of used furniture.

That said, those lightweight coverlets (have used Mezzati brand) also go through the wash each time; can dry on a rack quickly or under the fan in the bedroom if damp.  

Comforters are burdensome (time consuming) to wash and dry.

It’s dry reading but it’s there.

Utilities are not sub metered.One half is vacant and needs new flooring, dry wall and paint.

I do charge my tenants when they "patch" a hole by leaving tons of dried patch that I now have to sand and fix.  

I put roughly 13k into it removing wall paper, wood paneling, replacing a drop ceiling in the kitchen with a dry wall ceiling, refinishing hardwoods, adding lighting, and updating some plumbing.$1100 in rent for a 60k property might sound great, but property taxes on the house are roughly $300/month, so its not as lucrative as it might sound, plus the 13k rehab out of pocket is more than my down payment so it cuts my ROI in half.
