@Sean Spagnola - I always like to have photos of recent comps in my back pocket to help with the design of a BRRRR to ensure that the finishes are similar/same to the market. 

Keeping thorough records helped save the negotiations. 

@Steven Cornell think of this scenario, what if you have a turnover and your cleaning lady quits that day.

This might only apply to RM1. 

The agent was getting pushed pretty hard by his brokerage to get this signed before putting in an offer, so I caved, but limited the date. 

Would ownership by a SC entity resolve this issue?

This is something that I have always wanted to do but finally decided to make the career switch and go for it.

Maybe @John Bowens can offer some help as well.

Please - do this today: Send her a Notice To Quit for Non-Payment of Rent; you will need to send this to her via USPS with proof of delivery required so you can use it in any legal proceeding.
