@Paul Sandhu I put in a work order with tenant cloud or text my guy in the mountains depending on which market I’m dealing with and pay them when it’s done.

First of all you want to avoid as much lawsuits by running your business properly.Second line of defense is to have proper liability insurance for most basic challenges.Then to protect yourself from ambulance chasers working on contingency, you want not to look as a deep pocket target: you can use anonymity in your structures (anonymous LLC, land trusts,...) , and also use some equity stripping by having big mortgage on the property to make them look less worthy.You also want to use some federal or state protection like ERISA retirement plans, life insurance, homestead, etc...Last you want to insulate your assets from each other to limit the risk to only one of them at a time.

Cloud.

Are there assets outside of tertiary markets that, in the best of times should have been no more than a 6.5 cap, but some motivated new syndicator with money burning a hole in his pocket and the potential fees clouding his judgement, paid a 5 cap?

I have online services, ie, cloud subscriptions. 

You could have a notary file it with the county so now you've clouded title. 

Oops my last post got removed,Hemlane and Tenant Cloud are supposed to be good for smaller landlords and offer the features you are looking for. 

(Would it hold up in court, would it somehow cloud the title, would there be other problems, is it even possible in Canada<--Some things I would look into).4.

Auctions in NJ are always selling for way overvalue because new investors are overbidding and clouding the waters.

@Gloria Cloud VegaIf you can afford the payments then make the payments, if you cannot then consider a forbearance.
