Now with 29 SFR, I don’t need much in emergency $ because the rentals generate 19k/month profit.

Meanwhile, others who had boiler rooms, or several of you (money bundlers -  aka "fall guys") will emerge unscathed. 

Have both a personal and REI emergency fund because life happens.   

I would like to keep part of it for any unexpected expenses/emergencies I may find.

Tell the tenant (assuming you smell the skunk weed) they have 30 days to get out of Dodge.BTW, if the don't open the door, use your key and enter because you feel there is a possible fire emergency inside. 

She did not know why the renewal had not gone through, but noted that the property was delinquent on its property taxes.In the letter from RAD threatening eviction, which Anderson shared with The Inquirer, the company encouraged her to register for help from the city’s COVID-19 Emergency Rental Assistance Program and provided a link to the program’s website.Anderson said the house had been newly renovated when she moved in in 2019, but she noticed some signs of shoddy work, like dips in the floorboards and a bathroom faucet affixed to the kitchen sink.Still, she’d had few serious maintenance complaints about the property and found RAD’s property managers to be sufficiently responsive.Deteriorating homesSlaughter, the tenant who was outbid for her West Philadelphia home by Mendenhall, wasn’t as complimentary.

@Drew Sygit The verbiage in our management agreement is as follows: make, contract, and/or supervise repairs, alterations, and/or decorations to Property; to purchase supplies and pay billstherefore; Broker agrees to secure the prior approval of Owner for all expenditures estimated to be in excess of $500.00 forany one item, except monthly or recurring operating expenses and/or emergency repairs in excess of the maximum, if inthe opinion of the Broker such repairs are necessary to protect the property from damage or to maintain services to thetenants as called for in their leases; in the event that Owner is unreachable after multiple contact attempts for more thanforty-eight (48) hours to approve a repair in excess of the above amount, Broker shall be considered authorized to makesuch repair.I've been contacted about high ticket items in the past but these "make readys" are done without approval.
