They went all in when the market crashed.

I bring her in the car when I view homes so that they might meet her but no one has met her because, again, we can't seem to get to a place where they're interested in meeting her.Folks, we are looking for a place that's a true home, and not just a place to crash.

How did you arrive at your asking price?

I lost everything in 2008 when the market crashed, even my primary residence and eventually had to fill bankruptcy.

If a tenant wishes to pay in cash, we provide them with a deposit-only bank card and it is there responsibility to ensure their rent has been deposited (via ATM or a teller) prior to its due date.We no accept monthly rent payments via the post, because tenants seemed incapable of posting their rent sufficiently in advance to arrive on-time and, in this day and age, it's not a necessary option.I would start the eviction process with your new tenant immediately as sounds like he is either testing to see what you will tolerate or he has no intention of paying rent.

Even if market conditions go horrible and we have to let the property go, we'll lose nothing.If we sell anytime before some unpredictable future market crash, then we will make a phenomenal return on our cash.

The recent economic crash forced me to close my business and I lost just about everything.

Vacant land something you hold on for some times and sell it when right opportunity arrives.

They just barely survived the the crash of '06-'09 and have skated by on modest cashflow; but now enough is enough.One caveat, the values are not really impressive and if I were to refi I would surely be negative; they have amazing rates on their mortgage in the low 3's.So, the deal being discussed between us is I would pay for any repairs and other CapX issues that may arise and I will see my return when they sell the properties.

Thank you @Mary Kay Robinson that's very kind of you and I will make contact when we arrive. thats good to know the vacancy rates are so low, I'll keep looking.
