I would appreciate some insight as I start this journey.

If the mold remediation company performs the test you can bet they will have a terrific, expensive plan for you to get rid of it.

After several years of hell he intimated to me that when he finally unloaded them his losses were close to $85k but I bet it was much higher.

@Oleg Shalumov I guess that sounds like a safe bet to look at the current rents and if we can raise it eventually then great.Thanks for your help!

The last meal you ate, I bet that restaurant made a profit on delivering you a service which is to prepare and present you quality food.  

Just started my journey as well.

I'm reading and learning as much as possible here and find the podcasts really helpful, though.Good luck on your REI journey and maybe we'll bump into each other along our paths!

I want this journey to be a marathon.I am thinking turnkey is a good start.

Other than riding it out until the tenant's lease is done I don't really have any good advise.If you absolutely need the money then, the best bet is to negotiate a buyout for the current tenants, sell and pay the taxes.

Also, I would bet that you will get recommendations to rip out all the sheetrock while under negative pressure where mold is present.
