The main challenge has been dealing with the state and other governing bodies in regards to the water well and sewer treatment plant.

Any body use them?

Don't allow 3 adults but not a combination of adults and kids; treat all bodies the same and apply it consistently.

However, maintaining a cushion for those times when all hell breaks loose (the boiler needs to be replaced unexpectedly and tenants forget that paying rent is a priority) will also make your life better and allow you to make better choices (as in do not rent to any warm body...an empty apartment is much cheaper than an occupied apartment with the wrong tenant in it).Good luck

I read body language and although they are very charismatic.... they failed my test!

Also, if you're not familiar, look into Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover.

It is advisable to do your due diligence and ask about such things as how long have they been in business, are alternative assets their sole focus, are they BBB accredited and rated, are they a regulated financial institution, have they ever been sanctioned by any regulatory bodies, how many accounts and how much in assets do they administer?

No body can eventually force you to buy something you dont want.

They explain how they have been having water issues in the basement and no body wants to fix it.

At minimum it will become an added storage area for him and worst case the garage will turn into a body shop where he is repairing his bike and his buddies bikes.If he didn't rent the apartment under the pre-tense of being able to use the garage I wouldn't let him.
