So talking to people and finding solutions is not an issue.

Because a tenant's solution to any little problem is to buy a new one.I can't even tell you how many times a tenant has told me that something has to be replaced, and I go over there and press a reset button or reset a circuit breaker and the thing works perfectly.On an electric oven, the most likely failure is a heat coil, $30 at the very most, and 1-5 minutes to install the new one.On a gas oven it isn't likely to be anything but a blocked orifice or a bad thermo-couple (What?

I realize this is only a partial solution, but something as important as a mortgage may be better left to the ones actually holding the note.

They have a solution too.....but I'm going to let Chris Rock say it.

There is a tendency to broad stroke a "universal" solution when depending on various factors; geography, competitors and market conditions, create isolated results.

If anyone has had similar problems or knows solutions to any of these please let me know.

Sun room sound like a good solution but it could get expensive $6,000-$10,000 depend on the size, style and type of foundation.

This way they are not losing payment for 3 additional months and potentially having other issues (damage to property, homeowner who refuses to move, further home price declines, etc.).It's a step in the right direcion for homeowners, however still not close to a solution or cure.

The end buyer has made it clear that if he can't get inside to estimate repairs he's not going to close on this property.Beyond offering the homeowner money, does anyone have a creative solution to this problem?
