I collect $645 for the remainder of her lease through August 14, complete a walk through and return her security deposit in full.

Try to have the contractors provide you an updated invoice indicating paid in full/ work completed.  

@Eric Van VlietEric,I have completed quite a bit of Investment property rehabs and take care of projects for property managers in Kansas City.

The home is in shambles, I purchased it for $9,000 but right next door there are rehabs down the entire block, I can still do a cash out refinance and use that money to do a complete rehab?

Just to be clear I did not say all liens and judgements would be paid in full because that is not something we can guarantee.Per the email I sent you on 06/25 I reminded you of our terms and conditions that buyer is to complete their own due diligence which includes a title search as we do not guarantee free & clear title.

Twenty-three years of skin in the game, and you just lost him completely as a possible source of information.At least think about what I'm saying, OK?

Those are some things that I will try to employ to complete my research.

(completely new or garage conversion?)

My goal is to completely offset my projected income by 2024 so that I will have the option to walk away if I should decide that I want to (likely will not but having options is what I want most).

You cannot purchase properties you already own to complete a 1031 exchange.
