The problem is that he owes money from past due rent prior to TRA and he's a combative, unemployed, unstable tenant.  

When my daughter fired her PM, and rightly so, and the PM started talking about exit fees, my daughter told them if they want to try and enforce that, then they will see her in court where she will sue the pants off them for all of the fraudulent maintenance fees they charged her without permission by calling everything an emergency.  

To combat the above, pretty much anyone will tell you to make additional principal payments to bring it down faster and save yourself on interest.

Examples: mailbox door wont always stay shut, crickets and other insects (basement apartment), door to furnace doesnt stay shut, screen door wont lock, etc.I have a hard time saying no to her requests, because in reality I guess these things should actually be handled, but it's stuff most of tenants would handle themselves or just shrug it off.Any suggestions on how to combat something like this?

“This settlement reaffirms HUD’s commitment to combating discrimination against a person because of their national origin or the language they speak.”

The bank can not cover up fraudulent check writing.

Maybe their visa expired or perhaps they gave a fraudulent social security number to your PM and it got through.

,My big fear is FIRE, if someone dies or gets injured on my property, i hate lawyers with a passion.... we combat this fear with adding a ridiculous amount of smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, not 1, but 2 fire extinguishers, and safety ladders for 2-story houses... just spent $1K on extra supplies last month!  

@Terrell Garren As a combat veteran .11b and paratrooper, I must say that your comment is the absolute perfect response.

The way to combat your wear and tear is, one, to properly screen your applicants, the other is to charge a premium price.
