The primary goal is to enhance my professional image for marketing purposes.

The financial markets and economy are in turmoil right now, so exercise caution in investing in the near future. 

He should have been a little more upfront with you about what he was doing, but if he has any kind of out in the contract it's his right to exercise it. 

You see, since every state and city in the USA has bought into this government exercise of severely changing the nation as we KNEW it, the issues are going to miss no-one!

But if my system is to exercise daily, then I increase my chances of happiness regardless of the outcome. 

For example, you can't give a holiday gift to only who you think are good tenants because one of them would post "Thanks Sam for the $25 AMC movies GC my boy friend and I saw Avengers last night xoxo" then your other tenants who didn't get a GC will feel left out.I visit my properties once a month for regular maintenance, mostly for little stuff, like changing AC filters, test smoke alarm batteries, test GFCI receptacles, pour bleach down AC condensate drain lines, exercise water supply stop valves, feel under any drains to check leakage, test water heater T&P valves, etc etc etc...they do not need to be done monthly but that's what I do at each property. 

It is pretty safe, those people are known in their communities, but you should exercise street smarts.

I think we all need to exercise compassion towards our tenants experiencing hardship and don't know how they will feed their families the next couple months.

I’m certain that through careful planning, market selection, understanding of the intended market as well as it's economic foundation, a solid strategy to include multiple exit strategies, acquiring a great deal, implementing and exercising effective business systems, working with mentors and other investors I’ll be successful.

I am trying to find the details of a game or exercise that a BP Real Estate Podcast guest discussed.
