The current owner pays $4K per year. 

I am paying for the rehab with about $15,000 of my own $$ and about the same in credit cards.  

I have actual work to do and don't need 30 days of this.He never paid me the expense deposit in my management agreement and I never pushed on it because I'm always holding enough of his rent at any given time for it not to matter.

Hi Cyndi, I’m just over the hill in SYV and also in an expensive market.

They are expensive $200 each but they do not break down and you can track who uses codes so a family could each have their own code per person.

It can be expensive, and time consuming.

Now I have to relocate the tenant, pay for hotel accommodations and the home is not habitable. 

The big thing I think you are missing is a BUNCH of expenses!

If the septic is old and has several years left then maybe better to pay the connection fee - but if its in good working order - I would maybe pass on it as its available when the septic system is passed its life.

The top offer was willing to pay us $20K above appraised value, if it was short, which it was.
