I absolutely wouldn't touch him....3 strikes is 3 strikes...glad he appears to have turn his life around but I wouldn't want to rent to him.

i dont understand that recommendation.i am in the same boat. but i save up for a downpayment and i buy another one. save up and buy another one. the sooner you strike the iron while hot, the more money we would "hopefully" make.

It's possible that you can e-mail the termination notice, or post it on the door, but to be honest, that strikes me as a somewhat underhanded approach.  

I strikes me as odd that they are unwilling to use a disinterested third party like closing/title company.For the record, I would gladly speak to anyone who has used this company, but when I asked for references I was told no due to privacy reasons.

That strikes me as silly.

These are all questions I am going to ask our attorney (plus many many more) but we are going to pay for the answers so I want to have a general direction to start down before I strike up that discussion.Thanks

I've always been pretty good at meeting a tenant, strike up a conversation in a parking lot/yard and walk off.

It strikes me as odd as to why they aren’t telling their story or no names are given.

You hope for the best but plan for the worst.You run numbers based on having 10% management,other fees,etc.Then after you try management if you like it great but if not you budgeted in the beginning for management.What is see instead is buyers do not budget for it when buying and afterwords try to strike a deal with someone because cash flow after debt service is tight.That's when the nightmare begins folks.

I assume that an assignment is way cheaper than a double close, but are there any of Will's methods that strike you as being even better?
