Like @Steve Vaughan said, "Get Mad" and pay off your bad debt as fast as you can.

I am reaching a point where I badly need a new vehicle. 

I needed some possible structural repairs altho it was more than likely to not be as bad.

He's the deal the house is falling apart due to a bad roof needs to be torn down, it is twice as big as our place land wise.

My credit score has always been in the mid to upper 700's but was badly damaged by a timeshare that I purchased over 20 years ago. 

Hoa fees can be bad, but it depends on the management company, we know which ones are are good and don’t get into financial trouble.

Had a bad renter and property management was not doing their job.

BUT, if you still feel bad for the agent, you can cut down on the number of offers by calling the listing agent and seeing if:1.

You want to make sure that a lawyer closes this deal, that way you are covered if the note is bad or if it doesn't get recorded, you can sue.  

Me thinks we are only getting half the story.At any rate, document the condition of the property when you lease by taking at least 20 pictures (every room) and perhaps even video of the whole property.I would say that draining all pipes is a bad idea.
