In our market it is important to make sure they are a licensed broker, carry adequate GL and worker's comp (and name you as additional insured).  

So this is a Quadplex, very cool.Ask him if he would carry back a second for part of the loan.

We had Crestcore Management and they neglected the tenant so the tenant moved out because they weren't able to fix the heating concern in a timely manner.

I would not eliminate OKÇ based on tornadoes, that is why you carry insurance.It will very difficult to find something in Austin that fits your budget.  

If I can get around this situation, it would be worth carrying some costs for a couple months but if eviction prolongs, a good deal will go bad quick.

You should ask to speak to the commercial lender at the bank that carries your property's current mortgage.
