Previous Tenant was a coffee shop and this prospective tenant will also be a coffee shop.There are 2 things on the LOI that I need your input on:1- prospective tenant is asking to play prerecorded music on patio.

I'd hire an attorney to draft a settlement and indemnification, return the deposit and eat the costs that he should be paying in exchange for not pursuing damages.If you wanted to throw chin music, you might counter for an amount that puts it out of small claims court and would force him to hire a lawyer but frankly I think that's a check raise with a losing hand.

When the music stops, that could be a big issue.

When purchasing a property / land in Mexico do you usually do it through a Mexican bank trust as a US citizen?

But, try and squeeze out a few dollars a month in Rents with the Mexicans and Rednecks...You don't have the Time to Gentrify Plant City.
