I always recommend starting with a prequalification letter to get a solid view of your purchasing power before heading out into the real estate market.

To preface, I have my real estate license and generally pull a list of presumed high equity(purchased more than 10 years ago), absentee owners in my target market and send out about 3000-4000 postcards or letters every 6 weeks or so. 

Now, over a year and a half later, he sent a certified letter last week demanding the security deposit or legal action within 30 days.Please advise. 

That means you must give notice of 30 or 60 days when ending the rental, filing an eviction and other things that have to be done to the letter of the law. 

I'm guessing you got the same letter I received from REVA, although mine was in reference to a different DST - Reva One. 

I'm finishing up the last of my engagement letters for next year and I know many of us will have sporadic availability for tax planning after this week due to the holidays.

As for the lawsuit, a letter to the court stating that the PM does not represent you and has no authority to represent you will get the case tossed. 

Looking for any creative input on how something like this could be structured.Taking part of the purchase price of real estate as a charitable donation and using said deduction to lower your taxes is tantamount to sending a cover letter to the IRS with your return requesting an audit.  

I've sent letters to the owner on tax roll.
