Let me know if you ever have tenants looking to enter the Greenville SC market. 

Funny how things can change when party STRs move in next door to wealthy people. 

Before closing, we were informed by the city that the person that had the house under contract before us (deal fell through) used a lawyer to have the lots split and the addresses updated/ changed.

@Walt Viera, read "The House Hacking Strategy" by Craig Curelop to understand the overall investment concept. 

But it would have to be a very special set of circumstances for me to ever let a buyer inspect one of my listings themselves without a fully executed contract and earnest money delivered to title.

If there is no active lease agreement, and again depending on state regulations, send them a notice to vacate.I do not ever permit smoking in my rentals, it is one of the most costly and time consuming tenant habit to mitigate.Feel free to connect - hope all goes well!

While such disparities can be due to a variety of causes, residents in these cities had economic tailwinds to help them through recent cost of living increases.To see where income increased most, SmartAsset examined Census Bureau data for 124 of the largest cities in the country and ranked them by the size of income changes between 2019 and 2021.

As either tax deed or tax certificate owner, you can change the locks, secure the windows, and start making repairs.  

@Danny Van- thanks  1) if you have some equity in the property - you might consider getting a HELOC in place now  in case you  want to use any  equity in the future ...Its  easier to get a heloc in place on a primary home as compared to a rental  2) contact your insurance agent and  ask for an  estimate for how the insurance coverage and premium will  change  3) consider  a proeprty management firm if you dont want to  self  manage  4)  get any forms and  processes  in place  (  leases / credit checks / bank accounts/  etc ....)

If you are ever in Pittsburgh you owe me a beer. ;-)
