Know your responsibilities as a landlord instead of acquiescing to every request or complaint.

Ya it’s more of a crutch to soften the blow of a large down payment. $40-$50k out of pocket, HELOC or private money loan for the remaining $20-$30k 

Are you able to request their balance sheet / income statement?

Then I was getting requests from other investors to help with their homes, so I did.  

If I put all of my eggs in one basket (Florida in this case), paid off property and a hurricane blows everything away, FEMA is nowhere to be found and the insurance companies take years to pay what little claims they actually do pay, I suffer through it in a blown out house.

I requested a few days ago on several properties and am waiting on their decision.

Get ready -- I'm sending you a connect request!

I want to discuss it privately, which is why I requested a PM.

Thank you, and sounds great, I'll send you a request, and happy to connect with you. 

It is a common concern, I think if you are writing competitive offers then you can request a discount.
