Please accept this as a token of my appreciation for having you as a guest.Any questions or concerns feel free to contact me at....LandlordNow you have shown goodwill for $100.

Hi Priscilla, sounds good will definitely try then.....also small world I lived in Palm Bay for a couple of years on Cecilia and Agora circle.

*I will be doing some repairs (good will, some are "unnecessary" but I like to get things in order to keep a good tenant HAPPY, and to dissolve their concerns about a scary new owner)... so, after the repairs are completed, should I do another walk-through with them in order to have an updated move-in sheet?

Marked by or showing deep sincerity or seriousness: an earnest gesture of goodwill.2.

What good will come if you do change?

I wouldn't want all that good will to go to waste.

@Steve Babiak,I've never heard of FMV being relevant, unlees the improvements were part of a business whose price included good will, blue sky, etc.

Not sure if this transaction would qualify for a 1031:http://www.1031corp.com/1031-exchanges-made-easy/1031-exchange-requirement/Originally posted by above link: ...Examples of non-like-kind real property that cannot be exchanged under Section 1031 include primary residences, “flips,” stocks, bonds, notes, mortgages, cash, equipment, goodwill, inventory and interests in a partnership.Emphasis (bold) is by me.

When a property is vacant, I will usually offer them possession a couple of days before the first of the month as a gesture of goodwill; this allows them to move in small items ahead of time so that their moving day is bigger things like furniture.

Thanks for all the responses and goodwill!
