.- it's not a drug zone but just a bad patch with unemployed peeps doing nothing productive so to speakShe wants out, really bad, ready to write off the loss just to stop losing more money every month.

I took on a partner because I am in the process of moving to Florida but did not want to lose the ability to work this connection from there.

If you can afford to lose the money and not lose sleep, the go ahead. 

Better hedge against vacancies i.e. duplex one unit is vacant still have another to cover mortgage; single family goes vacant lose all gross income for that month2.

I am thinking that because I would lose my em that I will probably go ahead with the deal even if they don't fix the burst pipe.

It's probably going to be a large amount but if those two things aren't paid he's going to lose the park and you won't have an option anymore, right?

If you define a  low/no risk investment such as a bank insured CD @ 2% - then another way of saying that is that there is a 2% chance that you will lose money (I know not a direct correlation).

If you were sympathetic and waiting to see if they came through to not spend eviction fees you lose time.

I've been to a landlord bootcamp run by Atty Tristan Pettit, who my usual, all purpose attorney AND another attorney I know who also practices general business related law both said is definitely the best LANDLORD'S attorney in town and the guy to call if you're in any sort of serious landlord/tenant dispute or any serious case related to being a landlord where the stakes are high enough to make darn sure you've got the best possible representation due to what you could lose if things go the wrong way!
