Hello I have a quick question and by the title I'm guessing you have a vague idea already of what it is.My husband and I have recently bought our first investment property and so far we haven't had any problems with the inherited tenants except for smell, which I've been able to subdue thankfully, but this morning one of our tenants has been taken in under the law and we're not sure how to proceed.What I mean is do we let them keep living here and is there a risk of it happening again?

Anything can be fixed and that includes smoke smell.

But if the repairs and maintenance is more than $60/month per unit, I can smell a potential opportunity.

If they are new to the game then dig deeper into their property management background and see if it passes the smell test.As for questions, the basic business stuff like insurance, are they properly licensed, have a company formed properly, their rates, the timeline to do repairs, their experience with collecting rent from tenants like yours, etc.

The general public needs a governing body to oversee this stuff to protect the public's interests.

I’m not coming from a place of desperation, I truly love my job but I need something else because the road life is hard on the body.

To be a successful realtor:1.) be seen, be useful 2.) go to work consistently 3.) go to work even if you don’t feel great4.) define work5.) take a family day or day off every week6.) do not be afraid of asking simple or seemingly stupid questions.7.) work hard until you learn how to work smart8.) put your clients needs before your fears.9.) surround your self with the most successful people you can find and/or people that make you a happier more loving person.10.) take care of your body and mind.Best of luck my friend

Think artificial skunk smell.

Wouldn’t it make sense to have solid stable 10% on your money when every body else is panicking and losing here soon. ?
