Hi fellow REIN members.
I am in the process of purchasing a townhouse that is currently tenanted, but will be given 30-day notice. My completion date is October 1st. The seller promises to have the tenant out by the end of September (the current tenants are only paying $1000 a month, way way too low in this area).
I already asked the seller to have tenant sign something to agree to move out by the end of September.
My questions are:
1) Since the seller has the dmg deposit, who should pay for the dmg after the tenants move out? (and I have taken over the possession of the property on the 1st?)
2) Is there a way I can start showing the place while the tenant is still there? (knowing that I am not the landlord of the property yet?)
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks!
