I don't actually own the property yet, but the owner has executed a power of attorney for me to manage it on her behalf.  

For example in Florida, generally,  a tax deed wipes out all non-governmental encumbrances, but still requires a quiet title action before a title is "clean."

They keep the place clean and pay the rent on time.  

Does anyone have any experience getting FPL (Florida Power & Light) to turn on power for an inspection on an REO?  

I provide information forms to all new renters giving them the pertinents - location of water/gas/electric shut off, phone numbers to all utilities and emergencies, trash & brush collection info, specific information about maintaining/cleaning the house, etc. 2.

The 3 bedroom is vacant and we plan to renovate (approx 5-6k in renos) and the 1 bedroom is already rented to what appears to be a nice clean older lady who has been there fro 6 years.

I know this will vary for the individual and the type of investment, but it seems most are happy if the mortgage is covered and it cash flows some minimal amount.For an STRP, its not completely passive as I would be hiring someone to handle the listings/cleaning but its much less work than the business I own.

I subscribed to audible.com and for about $15 mo I am able to power thru the books.

I purchased a 6 unit building about a month ago and scheduled my regular HVAC vendor to service and clean the systems.
