To get the best price you need to have a properly performing property.. get rid of the manager, find another one.. use google if you have to... you are going to get 60-80% of the value if you sell with a vacancy.. suck it up, get a new manager, claim some proffit and then get out.Honestly, you should dig deep with these potential buyers and see if they are related to the manger...

Hi high crime areas, assuming the note is performing then the highest risk is if you ever have to foreclose and resell, the crime rate could affect value.

Never use anything except M2M leases as you will need to be able to quickly remove non performing tenants.

In any situation where you have an under-performing asset, you have several options:1) Sell the asset - You already stated that there are no buyers, but have you really tried to sell it?

And it must be performed using a qualified intermediary who obviously has to be in place prior to the sale of your old property.

(this is not 100% but the ratio is high) The investor is selling because A) it doesn't perform B) it is used up and has a lot of deferred maintenance C) they want to move to something better or D) they are in trouble and need the money for something else.In scenarios A and B they need to find someone who is a Bigger Idiot than they are to buy the property.  

It would be a great time to sell off your lower performing rentals.

I am an active investor who manages his own portfolio, and I am a contractor and property manager who performs work and manages portfolios for other owners.  

I would like to find a buyer, exercise my option and do a double close and take the profit difference.1.
