One concern I have about the property is that behind the back yard fence, about 50 yards behind the property line, is a high voltage power line.  

The power in the 1031 is that you can sell investment property and purchase any other type of investment property anywhere and defer payment of tax and depreciation recapture on the gain. 

I would tell them to buy their own security cameras and battery powered door alarms, and they can take it with them when they move out.you provide a home that has functional door and window locks.

You're going to love it - especially after you snag your first deal and feel the power of passive income! 

Other items being odor removal, illegal tapping into power, and out if code re-routing of plumbing.

Electrical company came and repaired the broken power line but they wouldn't repair the fascia damage.

The only advantage I have tapped into is working with Large Funds groups who have purchasing power in large quantities.

@Chris MaMy agent has reached out listing agent, who in turn spoke to the owner’s power of attorney.

The only way I knew was a neighbor called me to ask if my power was out too.

It is, in my opinion the most powerful financial tool in your toolbox.If you want to see how powerful it is, ask your bank to convert all your debt to lines of credit, and I guarantee they'll say, "Sorry, you have to have some amortized debt."
