If you don't many claims will not be covered during the renovation period.

Homeowners can install proper screening for windows and patios to prevent no-see-ums from entering residences and outdoor areas used for leisure and entertaining.

This situation is not covered in the PSA.

So I wouldnt be making as much as I do now and not even enough to cover the mortgage.So if i was able to buy it outside of the exchange, I could take my time and get everything lined up. 

We are considering to hire a  reliable leasing agent at least for tenant screening, house showing and ect.

Just bail....cash for keys.....I wouldn't be surprised if 75%+ of bad tenant "endings" don't go down as a legal recorded evictionHe lied....knew he had an eviction....he didn't forget it.....he lied about a subject that is very critical in the screening process.If he had told you 'hey I had an eviction 14 years ago, but here are my last 3 landlords contacts so you can call for references" then I may let it slide once I check his storySo unless this guy is a superstar in every other screening category, ....AND my tenant pool is otherwise junk.....I would 100% pass.....

My question is: can those costs be passed on to the tenants and if so should they be billed separately or should the rents be raised to cover to costs?

I need to figure out a way to go after the cosigner who has the money to pay.This has been covered already.Hire an attorney, join the ex-spouse as a party to the suit, add claims that will result in a monetary award. 

I welcome discussion covering delayed financing and what can and can't be on the HUD. 

What is the best way to find a good quality property manager who will not only do a good job screening tenants but also stay on top of the tenants , minimizing problems?
