Mike, I would just kick everybody out, renovate the whole place, and start over.TC, "rent money was stolen" is the number one favorite excuse of drunks who drank all their rent money up.Your tenants might not be as nice as they appear.

Condos aren't my favorite for rentals.

i've gotten calls with business cards. i use either yellow and black or orange and black and there's copy all over them. it's a benefit rich card with my toll free number on it and the type of properties i'm looking for, the fact i can move quickly and with a call to action. i drop them at gas stations, pawn shops, bookstores, home depot, pretty much wherever I find myself at any given moment in time. it's a low cost way to get deals.my other favorite way bandit signs. in my area i don't do light poles i use the wooden stakes and place them in high traffic areas. i put up multiple signs in an intersection that way it makes it easier to remember the number and i also put them at the next intersection following the direction of traffic so they see the sign multiple times.check with the statutes in your area to be sure you don't run afoul of the law.

Mike,I hear what you're saying, and frankly, that is my favorite way to work with someone.

Be adventurous, just Google your favorite thing to do then go to images, which is right above the results, then scroll through the pictures and grab the one that fits you best, save it to your hard drive then upload it...

And my personal favorite, the fed reserve issuing bonds to create capitol and labeling it a good rescue, but then buys the bonds itself, nearly 90% of the issued bonds.

It might also be fun to share you favorite motivational reads too!
