If that is the case my honest answer to you is going to be keep trying but the chances are slim.

my advice is be polite to them and try to work with them to leave the place clean. tell them you would like them to leave ASAP and leave it in good condition.obviously you can 'go after them' all you want, but what are you going to get other than their first born. understand that you can huff and puff all you want and threaten to sue if they don't do this and they don't do that, but that won't motivate them if they have nothing to lose. if i were you, my goal would be to be as nice as possible to raise your chances of getting that place back as clean as possible.

Someone lent Roy money for a return knowing there was a chance he would default.

FAT CHANCE!

But, most folks will have a mortgage on RE, so lets assume a payment on a 7%,30 year note:Payment: $299Cash flow: $251/month, or $125/unit/monthLooks like a good deal.The second one has estimated NOI of $683.50/month, cash flow of $384 or $128/unit.

If so, the vacant units are going to stay vacant for a while, and put more pressure on the HOAs.I seriously doubt you're going to miss the "chance of a lifetime" by passing on this unit.

I've had the ending date for interest be extended to allow for time for checks to transit, but I don't see any reason for paying interest for a week before you own the house.Was that shown on the good faith estimate?

If they are there for a long period of time, chances are they are having some decent conversions.

My opinion is not to throw away a lead that could be a good deal, especially when you're starting out.Short sale is the way to go in these cases, but you want to ensure that you're signing up properties that have a good chance of getting a deep discount from the lender.Such properties are those that have volatile features that can be pointed out and negotiated/overestimated by the lender.

Sellers who are willing can greatly increase their chances of selling by offering lease options.It would be great to hear some more strategies that are working great for the rest of you!
