(Gosh, just found out CA requires 90-day notice now).

Noticing some fantastic information about on the site, loving poking around and reading all the posts :)The Australian market is so very different at the moment from the US market, not that there is no deals here, but much harder to find it seems. 

(Dealing with maintenance, doing move-ins/move-out inspections etc) My work hours are 8:30 am - 5 pm (although I typically work until 8:30 pm or 9 pm daily) I noticed that prospective tenants always ask to view properties in the evenings as they claim they can't request time off from work.

I have a difficult tenant who I gave 30 day notice of non renewal on his month to month lease, moved out 1/2/16 (2 days late). 

If the home were your primary residence, owned outright (no mortgage), and you have a good credit history, most lenders would entertain an LoC - perhaps to a lesser amount than 70% of he equity in the property - even with a minimum wage income ... if you can demonstrate that you can service the debt.As for being self-employed, if you provide the lender with your Notice of Assessment from Revenue Canada for the past three years, they will be able to validate your income.

Try this public notice aggregation site for courthouse sales2.  

I've also found that when I run a credit check many who have a fair number of accounts over 30 days in arrears (even if they haven't reached the collection stage) are to be avoided over a concern they've become too casual about living like this and thus adding another notice of a late fee (or even a threat of an eviction) doesn't seem to bother them very much.Gail

If the lender has filed a Notice of Action/Statement of Claim, the owner is noted in default, options are limited.I'll send you some options via PM.

I've noticed some things in the older sections of Green Valley.

I'm not active in that market area anymore, so my info might not be too helpful but I noticed no one else had posted!
