Under normal circumstances, Section 8 tenants here in Montgomery County Ohio, must be given 60 days notice of non-renewal of lease.

If it's in Texas and single-story, a better number is probably $1,500 to $2,000 for the inside and the same for the outside.Obviously, there could be circumstances that are out of the ordinary, but you didn't mention any.

Those types of circumstances should be discussed with an FHA representative and/or your loan officer.

Patience and consistency are your friends in this circumstance in my opinion.

All sellers were selling anywhere near my price range is their neglected and abused houses that despite their equity going up 10%/year still won't put a penny in repairing.

In extreme circumstances, we do not accept rent unless all fees are included. 

@Diana Dorantes I would think circumstances would be similar, since foul play is not suspected and the death didn’t occur at home.

Taking something that is run down and neglected to create a beautiful new home for someone is also a bonus.

I am double majoring in Business Management and Real Estate. ( I know this is not necessarily needed for real estate professions, but due to academic scholarships and extenuating circumstances this is a free education.)

Investments can be profitable but be prepared for unforeseen circumstances and have steps in place to deal with every scenario.2.
