If the unit is done and clean and ready for occupancy I let them move into unit one week early without paying a prorated rent.

We sold at the height of the market but getting a "clean" offer proved very difficult.

This is why you get title insurance to make sure your getting a clean title.

I could clean it up and try to sell it for 50k or so.

I would like to go in and get it painted, fix some broken windows, and clean before closing.

I put four 16"x16" concrete blocks in the four corners of the walkway to use it as a planter...not sure, may be something round like a small whisky barrels would look better.Anyways here is the final result after sodding, mulching, cleaning, planting.My neighbors are very happy with the changes.

My strategy is to use $110K as the ARV, then offer her i.e.110 X 0.7 = 77K less 5K (for clean-up) = $72K.

They could probably get everything cleaned up in a day or 2.
