Hi everyone! My name is Josh Sanchez from Los Angeles. I have always been interested in Real Estate but I joined the Marine Corps right out of high school so I couldn't become a Real Estate Agent for those 4 years. I ...

Go to the movie industry I forgot which dept exactly and let them know you have a space to rent for short lease or whatever you all agree to ,and get top dollar from those entertainment folks who come to the A for work ,and privacy is high priority for them if you allow pets on your property that maybe a plus think of B list actors or just folks who want to feel normal

The fact that this hasn't gotten through to her could be one of two things: A) flakiness (she's had it before; may not be malicious), or B) she's hiding something and maybe already doesn't expect to get the SD back.I think at this point threatening to send a locksmith at her expense might be the best of a bunch of bad options though. 

It has to be worked at, built like a virtuous habit over time, but I suspect anyone with enough practice can manage to wash away the stain of a monstrous act or two done in their lives from their memories like it had never been there in the first place, and continue to live their lives looking out from behind a face just like the rest of the family of man.

But in any industry you have good and bad actors.

I’m sure that in some cases this is true - but with the proper screening processes that we have in place it just boils down to a thing called "The risk of investing in real estate" - not a malicious or greedy act from the property manager. 

I am located in New Jersey so it would be great to chat with other investors / actors in the market and get some perspective on potential team members, neighborhoods, prices, etc.

However, I'm also in strong agreement with the licensed ccw approach too. if at all possible, bring the person and the ccw. make sure you bring someone that will have your back and can assist you if necessary. being able to identify the perp after they've battered/killed you is important in the eyes of justice, yet its not really preventative. hopefully most realize the difference. if someone has malicious tendencies towards a real estate agency/sales people, r.e. investor its the preventative measures that could save your life and that matters most. the reality is as many people that are in prison...there are a lot of sick people loose in the public of anytown usa. we all have access to phones to try to dial 911 but the opportunity may not be available. self-defense is first priority in my book.kudos,Mary 

In 2018 it’s probably a better indicator of a bad neighborhood or something situationally malicious IMHO

As I recall it was a bad actor who the service was gunning for any way.
