In my experience it helps keep pre-applicants organized and is an actual sight with a google-able name so it doesn't seem as scammy.The background check and credit fee is $30 paid by the prospective tenant but I always tell people applying for my units ahead of time what my credit and background requirements are and that if they pass those qualifications (plus the reference checks) and sign + pay the deposit that I will reimburse them the application fee.

Just hit up as many brokers in the area as I can find and have them refer MF agents?

I also did an initial telephone screening/interview and check references.

Always ask for references from other property owners they’ve worked with.

@Jimmy Rojas - Simple solution, complete your taxes.

Unfortunately, that also means its likely not worth fighting much beyond sending written notices as you suggest, at least not on my own.By posting this in the forums I was hoping to find others who had invested in these deals or with the operator so we could band together to find a solution.

Document the condition thoroughly for future reference and estimates.If the property is of interest, it’s crucial to have professionals assess potential structural damage, electrical issues, or mold remediation costs.

All In One loan may be a good solution

We work with investors on 1-4 units throughout CA & OR and would be happy to support your search or refer you to a friend.

There's a chance they will say no (because they showed you 6 properties and expect to be paid) in which case perhaps you can arrange for their managing broker to set you up with a different agent in the same brokerage and give the first agent a referral fee for their efforts/ for referring you.
