That is completely separate Why  is tenant blaming landlord for an act of God and something out of the landlords control ?

I have plans to get a free and clear property under control in capitol hill with an 8 to 12 month purchase option (because they're not ready to move out and sell just yet) then put a rehab VA conventional loan to cover repairs and upgrades, then air B&Bit (other than the roof, the home has all original everything so I'm not quite sure how to estimate needed repairs) Now because of this rule I can't.

If the rents are pretty low due to DC's rent control, your LTV might need to be lower to meet the lenders debt service requirement. 

Seems like a fantastic opportunity but I would appreciate your advice.

Also, I know all the mortgage loan officers in BOISE and they all do a fantastic job and know their stuff.

You lose control and efficiency when managing remotely. 

I had the oven repaired, AC compressor and condenser replaced, and heater control unit replaced.

Water heaters, dampness, foundation issues, control panels, the pricey stuff will show itself.

It’s amazing to me what people expect property managers to pay for from the $75 they are being paid each month Most people are fantastic but the one in 100 can take more time and cause more hassle than the other 99 combined.

Have a fantastic day
