Regular and transparent chitchats are the way to go.

There are other ways to determine rental amounts like researching in zillow and/or rentometer, which I typically reference.

I have sold two properties on seller finance, but I don't buy on seller finance, but I know a lot more about it than you do.Again, on the pocket listings, if you are referring to 10 units and up, I agree that it's not at 1/10.

.- If they are more reasonable you may want to accept if for now, but let them know you'd be doing regular increases to get the rent more inline with market rent.Too many newbies here will tell you to get market rent or get rid of the tenant.

So this is mostly in reference to us doing our own repairs, not necessarily looking to hire other people.

Hey Tyler we hate to hear that your experience was negative sincerely we would have hoped that we could have come to a resolution we know that you and your partner had made a request that we do $800 of work that was unfortunately not in your scope of work at the time we had exhausted $4900 in additional work to ensure the property was to satisfaction which included a new hood range upgraded lvp flooring additional framing  new window and a paint upgrade from a single color format to a multi color format and can lighting all of which was never in the original scope and unfortunately when we requested that we do the work you declined I’ve attached before and after videos of the home for reference https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/h0ddll4cyp5g5gq12o73s/Video-J... always twos sides to these stories.. 

If you know of anyone please refer it to me.My situation is that even though I have my STR certificate the OSE officers keep knocking on my door, the 1st time I was home and I talked to them, and because I had guests they didn't insist to get in.

I've heard people refer to Santa Ana winds with the Bay Area but I wouldn't think it goes this far up north. 

LTC is sometimes referred to initial funding.

Pretty much any regular bank / lender is going to require themselves to be in first position on all the properties... so I don't think a HELOC type solution is going to work across multiple properties with multiple lenders.
