Reach out if you ever need help with anything!

@Mallory Guerrero,The only way I would ever allow this, is if they were a licensed tradeperson  (plumber/electrician) with many years of experience, 99% won't be, so when in doubt-- No. 

I just re-signed my first ever tenants.

I don't think it'll ever be dead.

You will still have to personally guarantee the note though.Personally, I don't ever want to take the risk of owning anything in my name.....Happy InvestingDerek Dombeck

Knock on wood I haven't heard anymore (I feel bad for my mason, I know he did the work right) but my attorney is aware and ready if anything ever comes of it.I agree, some people need to accept being adults and dealing with house repairs, when owning a home.

Has anyone ever created a partnership with a vacant home owner where owner retains ownership of the property and the other person (me) acts as a property manager for renting and they split the profits.  

For example I ask, do you have pets, ever been evicted, length of time at current job, current job, etc. 

I'd be looking at $10k to replace all the windows and patio doors, or nearly $15k if I keep the arch design.The other alternative is of course to simply not replacing the windows, unfortunately one of the main selling points of the house are the views and the ugly aluminum windows get in the way of that.The property itself is one of the largest in the neighborhood(3500 sqft), the closest comp is considerably smaller(2800 sqft) and not freshly renovated sold for nearly $1m last year.

"At its peak population of 1,849,568, in the 1950 Census, the city was the 5th-largest in the United States," Now, of course things are different.
