They could very well end up being an excellent tenant in the long run, and just need a break, but I never let personal emotions interfere with making sound business decisions.If they need to establish a "track record" in this country, I'd prefer they do it on another Landlords dime. 

Try not to be too emotionally attached. 

I'm not in a rush and want to take purposeful steps rather than emotionally driven and incorrect steps (just explaining my slow process).  

No algorithm can take into consideration all the nuances of a house and the appeal of the location of said house - a purely emotional factor.

There's not time for emotions.

And I will slow down my process in making offer, do more research on my own, be more professional in the process and I don't want any rejected offer affect my emotion....

I have bought over 40 deals like this and I don't suggest letting emotions get in your way (not saying you are....).

Most 80 year old attorneys probably are not going to start trying out a new direct buyer, though I guess you never know.This also has two advantages, A, not having to contact those directly related to the deceased, it's more matter of fact / business rather than high emotions, and B, almost no one else is doing it this way.

It is an extremely emotional time for them.

Whenever we are involved in an eviction, emotions run high and it’s a very sad and dangerous time.
