But ultimately my main goal here is to take the wholesalers out of the equation for me to get a much better purchase price.

Another part of the equation is the ROI that you can invest the additional cash flow at.  

So they are biased also, but they still equate value of working with a financial advisor. 

How does that equate to dirty?"

I'm not exactly sure what this means but I think it means that your monthly principal and interest don't factor into the equation.

This does start to balance out when you add more and more properties in a market, but that is money you could be building for your next one.Third, you have no choice but to pay a PM when out of market.  10% monthly PM fees, marked up maintenance costs, typically more frequent turn over which equates to more frequent turn over repairs and leasing commissions. 

The purchase price may be $50k/door, but that could equate to a 6% cap rate. 

These small details can make a big difference in avoiding gray areas later.Screen thoroughly and consistently: A strong lease is only half the equation — the other is placing a well-qualified tenant.

Low entry point typically equates to poor flipping opportunity.  

Removing the MIA Tenant from the LeaseThere’s typically no way to “revoke” someone’s rights under the lease unless:You enter into a mutual termination or amendment signed by all parties, including the MIA tenant (which seems impossible here),You pursue eviction, which includes them, orThe lease term naturally expires and you write a new lease with only the remaining tenants.Unfortunately, ghosting doesn’t equate to legal abandonment—especially if rent is paid.Next steps you might consider:Keep detailed records of communication attempts with the MIA tenant.Consider a notice to cure/pay or quit if rent lapses.Talk with a landlord-tenant attorney about how to proceed with the security deposit—especially if the lease is ending soon.If it comes to eviction, name all three tenants in the action, even the MIA one.Good luck—this situation is more common than it should be, and clear documentation is your best friend here.
