@Preethi S. understand your concerns about PMCs defending themselves and throwing owners under the bus.But... how is it okay for you to NOT share all the context, yet throw the PMC under the bus, and by extension all PMCs?

We signed P&S agreements on 6 different properties totaling 20 units approximately 8 months ago and received a call today that the price we thought we were buying at has to-be increased on average 13% due to the increased cost of construction.

That's just straight up Bull-S%#t. 

Property manager (PM) 's lawyer continued the case to get the unpaid rent from the tenant.PMA between landlord and property manager(PM) has also expired so landlord got the property back , but when landlord requested to settle the account and the deposit( there is one month deposit from landlord also), PM refuses since the lawsuit is going on with the tenant, Additionally PM is still charging the monthly property management fees from landlord even though landlord is managing the property.Landlord is done dealing with PM and requested the PM to withdraw the lawsuit against the tenant ( landlord is aware that he will loose 2 months rent), PM came back saying they cannot withdraw the lawsuit since that will violate fair housing law.QUESTION:Does withdrawing unpaid rent case against the tenant violate fair housing law ?

Companies like State Farm, Allstate, or Chubb often come up in conversations, but comparing quotes with independent brokers might give you the best value.Since you're in a general partnership, it”s critical to clearly define liability exposure.

Moscow has changed a lot since 90's. 

There’d need to be a lot of rehab work/managing that would require you to put in that many hours.From a financial perspective, it seems like the highest leverage way to keep buying more properties is leveraging your W-2’s and then being work optional.

Either look out of state for the something like the brick 4plexes built in the 80’s that look the same 40 years later.

Hi all, my LTR (Boston, built in the 1930's) has some cracks in the basement walls that I didn't think were too serious (owned for 10y, some water and flaking but mostly dry).
