During the Great Recession there was a popular belief that people could move into abandoned properties that were usually pre-foreclosure, register their adverse possession with the county and have full ownership with no mortgage debt after one year.

@Linda WestI would bet your contract indemnifies the pm for any costs associated like this.

It's kind of like insurance.As far as the ideal time to buy a house, I'd assume we continue to see home prices come down a few % points over the next several months, but as interest rates continue to rise I'd bet you see your mortgage payment be about the same.

I don't think there is a right or wrong answer, since I don't think there's much of a downside of doing it.Personally I don't do gifts because (1) at a certain number of doors it's going do be a hassle. (2) it creates the expectation that I'll be giving them those things every year. (3) I'd be willing to bet the benefit of giving gifts/cards is negligible when it comes to tenant retention I think the best thing you can do to keep your tenants happy is to be a good landlord and that will help with retention of your tenants. 

@Nina Grayson I bet!

But I think, it being a Honda S2000, the price might actually go up at some point as it’s rather popular. hasn’t been in production for ten years and prices have remained rather high.

Moreover, sellers can expect to get a premium for offering to finance, meaning they are more likely to get their asking price in a buyer’s market.Seller financing rises and falls in popularity along with the overall tightness of the credit market.

Our filters are pretty specific, so it excludes several of the more popular companies, but we WERE able to find Direct Response Associates, which can give us the list we need at a better price, even!

Flips and BRRRR in Newark and surrounding cities are very popular- you’re in a great market for those.

Best bet is to consult a Real Estate Attorney, pay them for their time (usually $300-400/hour) and have them help you navigate the legalities of this particular situation.
