If they pay what is due, great, but if they are just going to string you along everyday you wait to start the process is another day you are giving them free rent and more wear and tear on the property.It’s not a fun situation, and it may be something that is out of the tenants control, but the bottom line is that they signed an agreement, and you need to enforce it.

After 4 weeks of working non-stop using my vacation time and every day after work along with weekends, I had a presentable yard, parking for 12, a 6 bedroom house, renters on the hook and all I spent was about 5k out of pocket between materials, equipment rental and 1 month’s mortgage.

Not for convenience, but for market stability and growth I see all around me every day. 

Meet some other folks who are doing what you want to do.I have a website, blog, and I do talk with lots of folks everyday about real estate investing.

Whereas this is about 1.5 months of interest on top of the loan amount.I'm planning to contact the lender to get a breakdown, but they have been very slow to get back to me and every day I delay signing this closing disclosure pushes out the 3-day waiting period on being able to close on my refi, so I'm hoping someone on BP can clarify for me more quickly so I can move forward.Thanks!

When I decided that RE was going to be my key to exiting the rat race, I sat down and put every known event I have to do, every day, on my google calendar.

Every day is a learning experience.
