I am pulling in the words Boise and Ada County to this thread.....as it might alert some Boisean's via their keyword alerts. 

Keywords: Nashville, Davidson, Franklin, Brentwood, Williamson , Cheatham, Rutherford, Murfreesboro, Smyrna

Most of it seems fairly straightforward but the agent said the house is overrun with cats and that it smells horrible.

Pretty straight forward since he knows the place needs work.Does anyone have a vacate end of month to month lease document that you could send me or do I need to go to a lawyer?

Not that everyone has the same goals, some might be willing to accept close to even or no return or are confident they can keep the maintenance and capital investment #s low... as long as they're going to get that long term equity pay down... rental market will always be strong here.I did just notice an a 1%ish rule in a foreclosed andover small multi family, but with as-is foreclosed not always being so straight forward there's more work with the condition of the property, getting the prior-owner out if they're still occupying, and possible surprise liens.

This is great question and unfortunately it doesn't have a straightforward answer.

My keyword for "wake county" led me to this post.

We were ALL very green to REI at one time - everybody starts there :)Have you set up some keyword alerts to help you learn about things/areas you are interested in?

So I would start with a specific keyword search on Google.
