Many calls are in the midst of a lot of noise.

However this takes time to both research, and a lot of time grinding the pavement trying to find sellers willing to do owner financed deals cheap enough to make it worth your time.

This isn't something we have to deal with in most other areas of the country (though it's gaining in popularity).It sounds to me that two things are going on - first, it sounds like you agreed to take on the responsibility of getting the house inspected and up to code, and second, you've got a nosy neighbor that's fanning the flames with the inspection process.I would forget about the neighbor - it's just noise.  

I think landlords who overstep their bounds like they're some kind of British landlowner, end up losing good tenants.People with options will move if you interfere with their right to quiet enjoyment of their homes.And what many landlords don't understand is the right to quiet enjoyment has nothing to do with noise.  

Most do not want to put in the grind that goes into acquiring and managing rental properties.
