When it comes to condos, you have to solely focus on the insurance section of the governing docs, as well as any "insurance related" amendments or resolutions made to those docs. 

I also go through the entire home (inside and outside cabinets, walls (stair wells especially, since these get damaged at move in/out) front and back yard, everything) and take up to 200 high resolution photos of every inch of the property (make sure each picture has the date and time stamp on it). 

BP - I promised an update after coming to some sort of resolution on this property.After applying some pressure that @Josh Caldwell recommended, I was able to instigate further negotiation with the seller.

Was there any resolution to this?

They helped us get resolution on this problem, and now we can put it behind us and move on with more investing.

Then reset and move forward.Get Written Resolution - Schedule a time to meet with the tenants.

There had been no contact since, and I’m ready for resolution.  

I think you both can argue great points and never reach a resolution or middle ground. 

In either option, the agreement should spell out all duties, responsibilities, and resolutions for all kinds of issues that can occur (death, divorce, buy out options, who funds what when and how, who does what work, how hires who, etc.In the choice of the entity, you should consult your RE attorney or CPA for the best structure for both of you.

The town suffered mightily from the late 80's S&L meltdown that resulted in the Resolution trust purchases and it's sort of sick/funny to see the same properties in foreclosure.
