I know it may seem daunting to bring in an attorney, but eventually it's something you'll need.

It's definitely a battle that needs to be fought eventually, but I didn't feel like I was in a position to be the one to fight it. 

We don't like the situation and probably will eventually have them sign our lease/rental agreement once things are stabilized.

Eventually the economy will slow, rates will go down, rents will decline (as the new building vacancy rates increase forcing developers to lower their prices), and state/local taxes will continue their upward march.

I was wondering What percentage of the mortgage amount would you set aside every month to cover the eventual cost of taking care of a property.

You say 'However, that $70k is not yours, you need to pay that back'...Yes you need to pay it back eventually, but why do you need to pay it back now?

I do eventually want an absentee owner list as well.

Doesn't the gov eventually recapture that year 1 depreciation because the sale of these properties is done fairly early (5 - 7 years)?  

They would stalk the last drying up watering hole because their ideal prey would eventually have to come drink.So I would stalk bigger pockets and see what my ideal clients would say, type, what lingo they use.For example.

This would allow us to see how close we are getting and eventually build up a person's confidence to pull the trigger on an offer.
