I had actually had an attorney answer, "We don't know yet" to a question regarding this issue because there have been no precedence set.In saying that, always error on the side of sound judgement. 

Some siding is missing and the broken rain gutter is aimed right at that spot.  

Could be poor grading of the surround land, poor drainage, and then add rain to it.

Try to deny it and you'll quickly end up on the losing end of a court judgement.

The court hired a process server to serve tenant, the tenant had 7 days to respond, she did not respond. 3) 7/9/2018 Because notice went uncontested I filed “application for entry of default judgment” 4) 8/13/2018 Default Judgement signed by the Judge.5) 8/21/2018  filed "Writ of Possession" (Min Seven days waiting period after default judgment signed)6) 8/24/2018 Writ of Possession signed by the Judge.

Use your best judgement when using contractors.

You are your own best judge so the less you have to depend on Realtors, property managers etc (who are pushing you to buy to make a buck) to make those judgements for you, the better off you will be.

The lien holders can still go after a deficiency judgement.

This is a business and unless you want to learn some REALLY expensive and painful lessons you better start treating it like one (no judgement just tough love).

Being the value is obviously diminished on the collateral, you would have to go after a deficiency judgement to collect the remainder owed.Note to self....
