Both can be true.I understand the need of emphasizing the business side of things, but I feel like the way to do this shouldn't be to take shortcuts that don't necessarily match reality and are, to an extent, dehumanizing.

Still, no.The next day she feels 10k is reasonable.I initially was inclined to help her with a new bedroom set, and return of security deposit along with not charging the month of september while she finds a new place.My responsibility or not, amicably helping a tenant vacate quickly is in everyone's best interest.

If you say the most you can get is 25k, then you really need a lender who will go maybe 85% possibly 90% on the front leverage and you'd have to be in a market where the sale price is under 100k.Lots of times the starting capital of the investor does not match with their home market. 

I hope to retire in 9 years, so debt elimination or cash flow matching debt payments is fine by me.

Connely/unarmed, Supervisor Smith 7 visits, etc...) and the hours they were there- and that better match up with the contractual requirements.

For example, there's an Employment Verification Form, Forwarding Address Form for Deposit Refund, and so forth, that you can request your tenant to fill out.I want to make sure I'm not missing anything (as well as protecting myself) but also don't want to over-burden the tenant.

Also, when using a wholesaler, I put a deposit in escrow so they knew I was serious and could pull the trigger quickly.

They can ask you to serve notice so one unit (or both) are vacant at the time of possession, but if you agree to that make sure you have a large deposit and some of that is not refundable if the buyer backs out as you will need it to cover the lost rent.

There was a direct deposit on same day as the payment which would have made the balance enough to cover the rent payment.
