It shows you're committed to growing your investment, and that’s exactly what a good property manager (PM) should be helping you with—they are stewards of your hard-earned money.I would suggest approaching the conversation like this: “Hey, I’ve noticed that maintenance expenses this past quarter seem a bit higher than usual.

Over the years you'll decide which battles you'd like to fight.I approach active investing like a business, 1 of many S.O.P.'

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.PM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

This approach would allow you to use a 1031 exchange later to defer the capital gains taxes when you sell.

@Jim Pfeifer built an incredible community and BP/PP can take it to the next level. 

That's incredible ROI!

I think that’s a great approach. 

Would love to hear different approaches, thoughts, etc. on this. 

I would probably approach your tenant with this information and say, "If that is the way you want to play it, so be it... but be aware you are really screwing yourself if you go that way" and explain that situation to him.
