They would rather waste to postage and call.You can get on their list for most any reason, just the right neighborhood they invest in, an unkempt yard or exterior, tax bills sent to a different address, etc.

I ask tenants if there are any maintenance issues they’d like me to address.

None of which you bothered to address.

As the address.

Again, I have reviewed the Mississippi laws and this specific situation isn't addressed, only that abandonment can be used because the utilities are off.

So when your driving for dollars write down addresses and then put them into google.

Does your lease address pets? 

On that form you’ll need to list the address of any property you own, along with the mortgage amount, taxes, insurance, any rental income you receive, etc.So they’d find out about it one way or the other.

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

.), is there someone else in your firm that has more time available to address these issues?
