Quote from @Jim Crockett: Had a power couple go over to their ship despite my warning, they are young, we are not.

Complaints are being filed and we are resolving the matter via the appropriate channels. 

We are extremely unhappy with our property management company.

We are in 11 markets, including Huntsville and would be happy to set up a call to talk over some options. 

Again we are reviewing our investments, potential developments, defensive positions.My outlook is the stock market needs to come down 50 to 60% this year.  

Ensure you have an itemized invoice from the cleaner, which can help justify the deduction.Reasonable Deductions: Long-term tenants often leave normal wear and tear, so I recommend being lenient on minor issues.

There are tenants in the other side already so we will need everything solidified for them by the time we get the title and we are set to close, which is February 19th.

We are planning to live in one unit and rent the other half out of a duplex, then rinse and repeat this process as many times as possible over the next 5-10 years.

We are accredited investors and real estate brokers, and we are in our 70's, and we live in Maui.

We are so excited to start this next chapter!!
