Can you post some updates on those court filings here?

They usually have a process for filing a claim with the city for damage caused by them, and they may be willing to cover it.

The attorney general office scanned all the hard copy pages I mailed, attached the PDF file to an email they sent me, saying that they are sharing my correspondence with their Consumer Protection Division.

Usually, a single-member LLC to avoid filing separate tax returns.

I have never had to file a claim though so I can't speak to that experience. 

If they're doing anything another tenant would complain about I send them a written warning and the minute another tenant complains is when I'll double check to see if I can file eviction for that specific thing and give the tenant three days to knock it off. 

As far as your primary residence, if you have lived in it 2 out of the last 5 years, you should not have to pay taxes on capital gains (difference between what you paid for it & what you sold it for) up to $250,000 if you file your taxes as an individual and $500,000 if you file jointly with a spouse.Just a disclaimer, I am not a tax professional.

When that tenant becomes an issue (and if they're not paying rent, they will become an issue) he can then simply tell the tenant that he's going to file eviction papers if they don't move voluntarily.  

The lender rep or broker you are working with should be able to walk you through each step so you have a firm understanding of what has to happen in order to get your file to closing. 

They hold title, and the mortgage and promissory note were attorney drafted and filed at our local county.
