He's the guy who shared my interested and connected us, he wouldn't recommend him as a seller if he had bad experiences with his other properties.I did ask about other properties and he shared about a duplex for $200k, but I wouldn't be able to afford the down payment needed.He acknowledged the rent is low compared to the market and never mentioned that it's his "best" property.1) Agree, but if he's been a good tenant is that necessarily a problem?
