A bad patch job is not satisfactory and they should be charged to have those holes properly patched and painted.Charging the tenant to paint the entire place after three years is excessive and probably would not stand up in court.

I started a beta project in Tarrant County TX to see how much of my quest could be completed.Step 1 Collect every Parcel ID in the county.Step 2 Standardize every address and owner nameStep 3 Crack LLC's to find rep/owner/manager Step 4 Create relationships between owners and properties (how many properties they own) Step 5 Gather Delinquent Tax roll filter and apply to ownerStep 6 Run Vacancy status on every valid parcel addressStep 7 Collect all "pain causing" court cases daily and scrub for owners addressStep 8 House all court records that match owners.Step 9 Create a SellScore that displays current and historical court casesStep 10 Make filters for all data to be sorted in cloud and downloaded if neededStep 11 Data append phone,email and daily update of owners that have court casesI think this covers the most common list.VacantAbsenteeTax DelinquentLiensEvictionDivorceProbate  The end result will output 2 csv files dailyownername,owneraddress,propertyaddress,caseType,TotalProperties,#Vacants,TotalTaxDel,SellScore,DivorceY/N,ProbateY/N,#Evictions,phone1,phone2,phone3,email2nd file- Just phone formated for RVM or Text uploadWhat other information would you add to create your perfect prospecting?  

The person with their "rapid scale up dreams" in 25 Arbitrage units may find themselves underwater in bankruptcy court.  

Sometimes the properties ordered sold by the court get pulled because the owner gets a tax lien loan to pay off the back taxes. 

Because a tenant in the court can always say : this or that was not in the lease so I never agreed to your rules and regulations.2) And whats do you usually put into your rules and regulations? 

@Song Choe if you were not sent an itemized statement of deductions within 45 days, they broke the law and you can take them to court.

Or he can turn the lien into a judgement via court action, assuming he hasn’t already, and then file foreclosure.

By the way, the sellers did pay the lien off, over ten years ago but did not file with the county court, and the company they went through was bought out by a company then bought out by another company; so they stated it is hard on them to get it settled.

@Hunter Adams I’d think they’re online...your county Recorder’s office, Clerk of Court, whatever they are called there.

The other party knows they're doing something wrong and will probably try to avoid court.
