i'd be tempted to let them out since they have been nice.I may counter at $5k + any costs I had (like appraisal), but I don't have it in my to enforce specific performance and take a nice person to the mat in court

The note business and I think real estate as a whole can only really be taught once you strap up your boots and get in the field.

That seems hard to believe, but I've not been able to get any professional opinions yet.Situation: The owner is pretty strapped.

Hello Mat Well as everyone did when I first came to Biggerpockets.Welcome to a site that is going to play a big role in your business.

I inherited a scum bag tenant that lived in the property for 17 years who destroyed the apartment with all his amazing handywork and stopped paying rent when i told him he couldnt use his apartment as a laundry mat.

The CASH program has gotten better for those cash strapped community owners.Curt is right.

I've had a couple strange inquiries come through AirBNB recently.One was from a woman who wanted to rent my place for 3+ months, only paying one month at a time, and requested that I block off future months so that no one else could book my rental.Another was from a gentleman who identified himself as a traveling medical professional and wanted to book my rental outside of AirBNB, then reveals how he's cash-strapped because of a family matter, yada yada...I declined both.

I've dealt with murder, shootings of the building, fires, showing a property and calling the cops as I was watching a pimp drag a person, and more. 10% isn't enough for me to strap on a gun and manage here anymore so we have been slowly saying good bye to accounts as there isn't enough money.

For a borrower already financially strapped, this makes a bad situation worse.

What do you recommend these "cash strapped" REI wannabies do with the leads once they get them?
