What landlords forget is to put yourself in an applicant/tenant's shoes. 

Basically, I stepped into the owner's "shoes," as it were.It's my opinion that you could just write up something like: "I, Dad, appoint Son, to act on my behalf as my agent regarding representing me in the eviction of Tenant, until I revoke this authority in writing."

Here is his post for the April 27th one:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521/topics/187...There are plenty of turnkey RE investments out there but if I was in your shoes, I would want to be hands on and do some, if not all, of the rehab myself so I could handle those phone calls from your renters if you decide to be a Landlord.  

It cured some humidity issues we were having and made the A/C much more effective, quieted down the home tremendously, and we were able to "showcase" them (instead of covering them up), thus adding a ton of light to the home.My only regret is that we didn't do it at the proper stage. 

Place a basket of disposable shoe covers at the front door and ask people to use them to protect the flooring.

How would you like it if you were in his shoes and your landlord wanted to kick you out because you had health issues and nothing else? 

For seller financing, I think it makes the most sense when thinking about this to try to put yourself into the seller's shoes. 

But, as far as your rights go, you step into the shoes of the owner of the contract you bought. 

Where I live, anyway, the Housing Authority is very approachable, as well as being no-nonsense.So, in your shoes, I'd start with the Housing Authority. 

I think what I'd do in your shoes, is tell the tenant that if they sign a document that says that you will make every effort to re-rent asap, and in order to do that you need access to the unit, but that the tenant agrees that this does not constitute taking possession as far as alleviating them of their duty to pay rent, then you'll get started immediately trying to find a new tenant.
