I see in one of the pictures that there could possibly be water damage behind the wall. 

Biggest rehab was we had to completely redo the bathroom because the subfloor under the toliet and shower were water damaged.

I actually had a very big insurance claim as a tenants washer machine failed and flooded the whole house which took a couple years to completely finish fixing the damage.

It's been a long time that rents have been rising so I think the prospects of rents falling is a foreign concept, but just like prices, rents go up, and eventually they go down, so you don't want to be in a tough position with a high mortgage payment if that happens.This is all just my personal experience and opinions of course, and I could well be too conservative in all of this, but nonetheless that's my current thinking on the subject (and thanks for the compliment about being a good resource, I'll look forward to your reaching out again in the future :)

I find that is a real rarity in foreclosures, and in several hundred foreclosures, I had precisely two clients damage the property to any significant extent.I saw you received some advice about considering the environmental factors in your foreclosure resolution. 

Appreciate your local insights...May i ask your view regarding tornado risks in light of the severe damage done by tornadoes that went through the Nashville area the other day?

Austin has great growth prospects.
