Pretend you're someone asking you for advice as a landlord.  

I won't pretend to understand our overly complicated tax system, but I trust my accountant when he tells me that this is the best way to CYA and give the government as little as I can legally.

A few ideas....check social media (LinkedIn, Facebook, etc); Google search the tenant’s name (I once found an ex-tenant I was trying to serve with papers who was listed on an online professional membership roster with her work info); reverse Google search the phone number; have someone else call the number and pretend to be a customer, vendor or whatever is appropriate depending on the type of business. 

@Skye AndersonHi, Skye, I can't pretend I know anything about long-distance self-managing, as I've never tried it.

If you doubt me, go talk to a lawyer.Think about this and pretend someone you didn't know came to you for advice with this question.  

Pretend you are the tenant.  

This is a great site but let's top pretending we're encouraging rationale behavior.

Honestly, right now, I'd pretend I never heard a thing. 

When you bought the property he pretended not to know that he was in foreclosure. 

Any advice is appreciated.Chris Pretend it was your mother, assuming you love your mother.
