Recap of our first week owning a 4 plex

We closed last Tuesday. In the first week, 

  • We sent a letter ending month to month tenancy with the unit that had cockroaches. No word from them yet... kind of dreading that convo
  • I've spent way too much time calling, on hold and talking to voicemail boxes trying to figure out how to transfer one tenants county assistance to my name from the previous landlord. To date, this remains unresolved and of the 5 messages I've left, no one has called me back and rent is due next week.
  • Another tenant took her boyfriend (who is also on the lease) to court for domestic and called to request permission to change the locks.

Hope every week isn't this adventurous.
