Another thought that has to do with perception......I have been driving a 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix since my Senior year in high school.

In that case only offer them a grand or two to cooperate with a shortsale or take it subject to the existing financing.If there is not then make an offer to purchase the property and the proeprty taxes and remind them otherwise it WILL foreclose and they will have nothing.

I suppose if you were to pay me 10 grand, I'd call a local attorney and get the low down and retain them as needed, but I doubt the guru mentors do that.I just keep pounding away at getting basic RE knowledge before getting with any mentor or coach, or getting involved in any niche strategy.

So CA in the 70's, St George, UT in 80's-90's, Casa Grande, AZ in early 2000's and so TX in mid 2000's till now and back to St George 3 years ago.

The grand prize for deferring this maintenance is to have to open up a wall or ceiling to remove a dead one.

Way to hit a grand slam!

Now, if you're a HAM technician (FCC) you can operate a more powerful drone and put a video transmitter on to transmit pics, guessing that might be about a grand if you fabricate your own camera and transmitter on the drone.
