I had a landlord tell me she only releases a reference after 30 days notice is given and last months rent is paid. 

Hello All: A while back I read a post about advice to landlords and PM's to advertise units under renovation or repairs units ASAP - like when the previous tenant gives notice or is evicted - even when renovations are planned, not completed.

For example, someone could have a bankruptcy that's a couple years old or medical bills (very common) or high student loans.

Common sense tells me that getting approved for 3rd mortgage when I want to buy a place for myself will be difficult, but maybe investment properties are viewed differently? 

Yesterday, he came to my house and gave me a 60 day eviction notice and gave me the paper stating that he's the new owner.

Very weird thing: first time the case was closed without any notice to us so we called in and told us we didn’t send the transferred warranty to state, so we mailed the warranty to state; the case was assigned to local county quickly.

Noticed some really affordable houses in that area which makes me wonder if there's something wrong.

Another tip, seek out other investors that you notice in the other threads that seem to know what they are talking about, check out their profile and send them a colleague request along with a specific question you have.

I know this because I live in this area and its easy notice it just by driving through the towns.

Here are the 3 most basic ways.TENANCY IN COMMON- An undivided ownership in real property by two or more persons.
