i have my tenants switch out their air filters 4 times a year at least

Make sure the location is safe first.  1.  

I think my first step is just to hit them back with a long list of questions trying to figure out why they are even interested and how it would make sense for them.

One thing that I screwed up a few times was this - don't do everything the way YOU like it, try and think like everyman....

We discussed this in an earlier post.Obviously, if loans are being made without any provision in the Operating Agreement, it’s time to get in touch with your State Securities Protection Division - usually a part of the State Attorney General Consumer Protection Agency.

It is maybe a couple thousand dollar up-front cost for the developers to determine the viability of a project.I work with experienced developers, who could perform & gather all this data on their own if they really wanted to, but the value that an engineer brings on these is typically worth their time & small cost. 

Property management isn’t easy, and anyone willing to take the time to figure it out deserves credit.My concern was never about you personally—it’s about making sure you set yourself and your friend up for success.

If you do that once it's a problem but six times and perhaps more you probably shouldn't be in this business. 

These people don’t have the time to do it themselves.

., how many times do these logbooks get scrutinized?
