I always put a couple nail holes and anchor bolts in their car fender before they drive away.

Syndicators who bragged about how smart they were, showed off fancy lives, cars, private jets, and mansions, second homes, and wrote books and sold expensive courses about how smart they are at investing are being exposed all over the place.

The house had the utilities turned off for the 6 years, and was filled with the original 1 owner's furniture, clothes, appliances, car and ecn food in the frig (without elctric on for 6 years). 

It was a very long drive. 18 hours in total on the open road, I would sleep in my car along the way and live off of gas station food.

Quote from @Tim Horning: Hi Carl, I am going thru the exact same issue with my first rental; a large 3 unit house.

You may not collect anything, but it will sit on his credit report and prevent him from getting a car loan, home loan, or scamming another landlord.

For additional context, here’s a snapshot of our financial situation:We’re paying the mortgage on our primary residence.We have one car with ongoing payments.I anticipate it could take up to three months to find a new job.I’ve already applied for unemployment benefits (in PA) and am waiting for approval.I’d greatly appreciate any advice or insights.

@Diana Teng Ask yourself this , would you buy a used car without looking at it ?   

Residences and cars are not purchased in individuals names.  

Some people make 4x the rent but squander their income on eating out, drinking, car payments, etc.
