And that's perfectly okay, if someone doesn't contest your views that's going to hurt you in the long(er) run.

Keep in mind how most emergency remediation companies work: The actual damage was probably under 1,000 to repair but they charge 10,000 knowing that your insurance will balk at the $10k and contest that amount, then they will probably end up agreeing to pay 5k so.

But if a tenant defaults they have a right for due process to contest the eviction.We see people try and do this with having a borrower on seller finance sign the deed back over to the lender and if they miss a payment the lender can record the deed back into their name.

@Jamaal SmithWas the increase due to local tax increase in rates or due to valuationMost property taxes are increasing significantly as is insurance because of inflation - everything has gotten more expensiveYou can try and contest the assessment and see if it reduces taxes.

(I can say that as someone from massachusetts)But people need to be careful as a CFD is consumer debt and if the borrower contests - all that interest they owe you could be wiped out as if you are not sending statements, I believe the law is then interest could be wiped out and considered invalid.

I also have witnessed very serious investors do an appraisal on the property before a refinance or sale to have something in their back pocket in case they need to contest the banks appraisal. 

Is this a popularity contest to you all?

@Joshua Thang, you can always contest an appraisal if you believe the appraisers conclusion is off for specific reasons. 

No contest between cast iron stack mains and PVC.

I am not going to contest it I am happy to take the $ and run.
