If the tenant said you absolutely have to hand deliver, then yes, that’d be annoying.

@Bryan Pham I’m looking to own a handful of properties (single family rentals) by the time my current career is over and I head into the next chapter of my life.

I could take a headache off his hands and get some experience.

Hello my biggerpockets friends,I was told that in my state we need to have an additional form for the lease agreement that the tenant will sign agreeing to transfer the utilities over to their name and that form can be submitted to the local utilities and if the tenant doesn't start the utilities then the utility company can turn them off. 

Every small hand tool you can possibly imagine.

No company will actually hold your hand through this process, which is what many of them promise. 

In the absence of that, the lender will continue as they don't know the Seller's intentions.In the end, if the Seller sits on his hands, does nothing to save his home, then BK is the only option for delaying the inevitable, but it won't solve his problem, and he will lose his home in the end anyway.

I would consider monogamy if you're going to need a lot of hand-holding. 

Would you have any real estate agent recommendations off hand?

When you put a lot of time, money and sweat into a place it can be hard to hand the keys over to someone else, even a tenant.
