Now, I have seen my share of destruction from angry home owners who wanted to stick it to the banks who foreclosed on them.Broken windows, smashed tiles, cracked bathtubs and toilets, sprayed painted kitchen cabinets, ruptured copper pipes, poured concrete down toilets and bathtub drains.

If the tenant does not comply and we decide to proceed with unlawful detainer action we take it to an attorney.After the court has ruled in our favor and our attorney has informed us of our date with the county sheriff, we prepare for the move-out.

I had to replace the gas line from meter to house, two toilets, the water heater, and redo some electrical (the electrical and gas line repairs were not a result of the vacancy but improper installation when built).

But it is a numbers game, you will find some unique situations on occasion where somebody knows they will never pay the taxes and may want to unload the property well before any county action starts.Lots of laws to consider, so do not take my advice as anything more than a suggestion or two on actions to look into pursuing.Take a look at that webpage with the delinquent taxes and look at some of the commercial buildings in the over $5,000 range using "ALL" for tax years.

And yes, money is really cheap right now.I think that is great advice to jump in like a wholesaler at first to learn how to find and take action when deals present themselves.

I guess I can just keep adding to my investment account until I can figure out a plan of action.

I think it goes like this:1st Believe, 2nd come actions, 3rd comes results.

But ha ha, then you rent out your place and a guest calls you at midnight your time to say the toilet is overflowing and what should she do?

One such homeowner saw their flood insurance go to $13,000 a year and they could not pay it, so even though their mortgage is current on principle and interest, their Bank started foreclosure action on them for not paying the flood insurance premium, which was beyond their means to pay.In addition new flood maps are being developed and properties formerly not in the flood are will now be in the flood area and require flood insurance.Flood insurance is only mandatory if you have a federally related mortgage which is 95% of the mortgages now.

The ket is constant persistent action.
