Then changed title to himself using Power of Attorney for the other person.   

For what it's worth, the tenants do pay a fixed utilities charge of $125 charge combined per month, which is included in the rent number I gave you (I checked with the city prior to buying, who told me the previous 12 months bills had never exceeded $135).

My goal is to get my degree(s) and obtain a job that pays the bills and allows me to build capital while investing in rental properties/real estate. 

In the City of Atlanta, unpaid water bills can constitute a "tax lien," while in Forsyth County, that would not be the case. 

Im not sure if the car was loaned to her by the dad or if it was the tenants vehicle but the seller doesn’t have money to pay the bills and also thinks something isn’t adding up with this car.In an attempt to assist the woman I gave her the contact info for the Baltimore Lawyer Referral Service (service available in every state where you pay ~$35 and can speak to an attorney in any field of law for 30 min and receive legal advice) so she can get legal advice and weigh her options and told her I can buy the property and close quickly on it and I mentioned regardless of the vehicle situation we can get her enough money to pay off the car and put money in her pocket easily.She seems really happy I’m assisting her but I know nothing about tenant laws or probate laws or even how a car can be tied to an estate.

@Meagan Maestre Leverage is the power of real estate. $100000 to invest.

It is basically depositing your checking pay periods into it, and paying all of your bills out of it.

I have contemplated the idea that maybe there was a leak and that's why the bills were so high. 

The hard money costs, property taxes, electric/gas, and water bills really add up and need to be taken into consideration when evaluating any potential flip deal.

Simply tell him or her the truth, if you don’t get expenses down you will have to terminate them and self manage or sell.Utilize utility bill back.
