But we’ve found that while they still stay quite busy they can always manage to come pretty quickly in an emergency.

Is there a funky property tax issue that arises with the collateral that is a local municipality error and can lender quickly analyze the situation, assess and articulate the risk and allow draws to carry on or will they make the life of the borrower miserable?

Hi Zalman,Thanks for your reply, some quick responses:1.

To resolve this as quickly as possible, you can either choose to level with the person and see if they'll agree to move out on their own accord (you may need to offer concessions) or get an eviction attorney involved.

They are inexpensive, they usually come with mineral rights (big plus in Texas), they typically have short redemption periods, low rehab costs, and sell quickly at the right price; they also have large ROI. 

As you mentioned, it might be difficult timing the sales of each of properties where you can achieve a combined exchange (multiple properties into 1 property / or a few properties).Just a quick note that may be helpful - I work with a group of investors that can help with a combined exchange into a single property and will buy it back once you've found a replacement propertie(s) as the final destination for your capital.
