Hey @Ricardo Polanco - inspectors, whether it's announced or unannounced, should not be forcing their way into your property. 

This is far from the 1st time I've felt that syndication management has been represented as primary ownership on BP, numerous podcast guests announce they own vast numbers of doors, and then deeper in comes the revelation that it's mostly syndication.

As a young self-managing landlord, I feel like it makes collecting rent look and feel more "official" so I am taken seriously... and my tenant set up autopay (score!)

Perhaps there was a more official way to deal with it, but this worked fine :)

However, government officials, pandering to populist sentiment, hold landlords to standards and responsibilities far more restrictive than any other business.  

On 5/15, which is after our official termination date of 5/14, I requested next steps on getting funds and clarification on outstanding accounting items.

@Vito DiIennaWhile I have not had to get a Letter of No Objection myself, if I had to do it, I would go right the the DOB, go into the Office that you can get an official Cert of Occupancy and ask them what is the procedure to get the letter.Normally, you will need to provide evidence.

It was bought at a public auction where nearly 200 properties were auctioned off one by one with an announcement that the first six will be sold absolute, meaning the successful buyer with the highest bid will be accepted.

This casual conversation turned into a unique opportunity, allowing me to connect directly with the owner and negotiate a fair deal before it officially hit the market.

I am not sure about your state, but in Arkansas, you need to either be a broker or have a broker in your office, officiating and executing leases.
