Yeah, I’m a fan of the old folk...they’re gentle on rentals for the most part vs the younger renters.  

Quote from @Jemima Twist: Hello friendsNew hopeful investor here.

Nice plot twist at the end too. 

I'm not their social worker as sorry as I may be that they can't seem to pay their bills.At any rate, pretending to be the property manager may be a more "gentle" way for you if you just can't say "this is the criteria I must legally follow for every person that contacts me regarding this rental property".Gail

Just a slight twist on everything "Notes"!

You are on the right track regarding your VA loan but you would want to apply a small twist.

And in a twist of fate, it's really how I ended up in RE.

If they are a minority, they could even put a different twist on it that which could be worse for you.

Both because of the fact they clearly have no interest in maintaining the exterior of the property, as required of the lease, and because they had no interest in resolving the issue of the additional people living in the house, we decided to gently suggest that they might be better suited to an apartment and that we were willing to discuss some form of negotiation to move them on somewhere else.

I have an STR and I'm wanting to gently reach out to newer markets.
