I agree with you that she probably wouldn't fight it, but I'm not overly confident in the verbiage of this lease agreementI think at this point I'm just going to let her be (i.e.

Have a borrower who has been fighting foreclosure for 12 months.

Any way to try to fight this that you know of?

At the end of the day, vacancy is what we are fighting and if you have properties that are vacant, maybe lower the rent and it will be easier to find quality people.
