What is your criteria and do you ever give wiggle room?

Essentially, my goal would be to transition from one tenant to another in about 2 weeks without ever having the water bill in my name. 

The 5th largest economy on the planet made solar mandatory on new construction!

Have you ever done this?

It will be the first house that I have ever bought and I don’t have plans on living in it.

I recently relocated from Victoria, BC so I am not used to units ever going vacant... 

I can't imagine ever buying another property in Portland/Oregon/Seattle anywhere like that. 

Tuxedo park -  is not and will not ever change, it is located South of Michigan to Washington and East of Sherman to Linwood. 

If you ever want to learn more about that route, feel free to message me.

I also get tired of having to explain that by "making a relationship" with you, I expose myself to litigation if I ever have to sue a borrower for a deficiency from a foreclosure and oh, let's not even mention the part about how I have to explain to my state and federal regulators, or my shareholders that I failed in my duties to maximize recovery and minimize risk of loss by selling directly to some invidivual investor instead of exposing the property to the open market....you keep digging.
