In the future, if possible, I'd suggest putting the tenant on a payment plan with a deadline and once the payment plan is signed sending that to an attorney.

There is a clear as day sale clause in the original lease signed by the 1 bedroom unit that the tenant is living in in question. 

I can see the rates they're advertising being possible BUT I doubt that they'd had the same spread if they were signing leases in today's market. 

I liked him and what he was offering (and being in the coaching space myself, I’m not at all bothered that he was selling something) but I’d never heard of him before, so I wanted to do a bit more digging before signing up.I am curious if anyone in the BP community  has had experience specifically with him, his courses or coaching program and would mind sharing their thoughts. 

I signed up for a mastermind class that teaches you how to invest in STRs and pulled the trigger on a 2BD/1BA house in Pittsburgh, PA to operate as an STR.

And to know that he signed a contract to rent the apartment in the condition it was in.

But, this might not exist prior to close.Although I'm just starting out and don't know too much, I would think having your tenants sign estoppel certs during escrow (as @Aaron K. suggested, to which I just learned) is necessary so as to avoid any unwarranted legal disputes.
