I have asked Brandon, Jaren, and whoever else there has been to help me, but.. still can't do it unless it's on my touch screen. 

@DORIAN CROUCH welcome to the site.You can make an itemized invoice and charge you cost to fix the things they broke that you need fixed in order to re rent the space.Cigarette burns, broken doors, holes in walls, broken towel racks, broken windows, dirty house, garbage in the garage or yard. etc.

Then for the front door I would update it to a beautiful wood door with a med/dark stain and either get rid of the screen door or make it a dark color. 

all the units would be rentable under the hoa and they actually screen the potential tenants also.  

After you purchase your rehab project, as soon as you can fly to the depot and get 2 things1 - new locks2 - boards for broken windowsI had a rehab a few months back where the back door lock was broken.

I'd get premium rent for it.If the tenants are moving out, either the landlord is not screening well, or, much more likely, there is a miserable neighbor that no one can get along with (probably the woman you talked to, she's sounds like she's good and crazy).I rented an 800 year old house in England that ws haunted, and I was all full of hope that I would actually see a ghost, but I was there for 3 years and nothing happened, other than some creaking with the wind.

The final 1% are the deadbeats that we evict each month.Your friend is getting the tenants he has because he isn't screening them.

Lock changes, boarding up broken windows, cleaning out junk left behind, tarp leaking roofs, winterization, and fix safety relates issues… Other than that… Yes, go after the Realtor and the Real Estate Investor…

Will a judge hold it against you if you push the edges vs. follow the law exactly.All the more reason to really screen well so you avoid the career tenants who are looking for landlords to scam.

The "Planning Phase" is definitely a mindset that can be broken.
