Just want to think about characteristics/qualities/etc. that make a good contractor/realtor/etc. 

Therefore hopefully a quality roofer will be able to take me through the process. 

I'm leaving allot of money on the table monthly and annually, but if I try to recapture the lost dollars too quickly I expect I'll  be forcing out quality tenants and face updating costs and vacancy. 

I dunno....getting rid of modest cash flow homes/condos in a blue chip market like SD, and exchanging them for a whole bunch of B and C quality doors in a fly over state = a recipe for disaster IMO.

Based on that number, looks like just over $80K would not be too much for a rehabber to ask and, depending on the quality of the job, might get a little more.

I also like the personable picture of you and your dog (maybe a professional quality one of the two of you would be great). 

If they are quality tenants I would try working with them with possible incremental increases as well if time is not an issue. 

Any list of potential leads you obtain for free is worthless, quality  lists of say 1,000 contacts cost around $1500.  

If money is tight (selling on your own might actually be costing you money, like using a PM will cost you returns) and it means a difference in your quality of life, sell.

The lender will not provide you with any information since the buyer's loan, details of their loan application, outstanding conditions, etc is all confidential information, and not even shared with their own agent.
