Here’s how I’d approach it based on my experience and Cardone’s principles: 1.

By keeping these principles in mind, you can optimize your position in the market.

I would say the same principle applies in the smaller world as well.

And that’s pretty close to the response I have planned for anything that was obvious, in plain sight, or as minor as some of the things you listed.

On hind sight, I agree with you.

But if you or even someone you hire were to violate collections laws, licensing laws, securities laws, or bankruptcy laws, you could be fined (or sued) for much more than the investment principle.

This then creates the opportunity to access that cash flow (converted into principle) via tax free refinances! 

Most of what I write from here applies to this type of property because that's what is customarily purchased by new investors who prioritize cash flow and should not be construed as general principles of real estate. 

Did you see this in person, or did you buy it sight unseen?

In fact, I would bet that the only stockholders that would have enough clout to move prices, such as pension funds and the like, would probably appreciate a bank that maintains clear line-of-sight between the note holder and mortgagee.
