My new employer was paying relocation via expense reimbursement.

Tell him you can't  give him a break on rent but you can reimburse him for legitimate repairs once you have the receipts.

(and reimburse  - without padding or markup - for any materials needed)For ex, I know that changing out a faucet shouldn't take more than 45 mins, so if a handyman tries to charge $ 150 (excluding the faucet itself)  for this simple task, i might feel exploited.Depending on where you live, quality reliable handymen can fetch between $20-50 per hour  (vs federal min wage is less than $8/hr) so this is pretty good for work that doesnt even require a high-school GED IMO.

Fully rented to three tenants with yearly lease, to expire May 2015, July 2015 and August 2015.However. in reading over the lease - the seller has written into each of the lease that internet and cable TV are included with rent.Investigating further, it is a personal Comcast account to the seller, and it's a SFR account, he has a cable modem in the laundry room, with coax cables running to the individual units, and tenants have the WIFI WEP password.Obviously when the purchase is completed the account will be deactivated, and I am going to have to figure out a way to provide cable TV and internet service in accordance to the lease.In speaking to the tenants, yes they use both, and yes they depend on both.As a matter of preferences, I have never provided any of this to my tenants, I would rather not if I can avoid it.I believe my options are:(1) Negotiate with the seller to maintain the account in his personal name for now...he continues to pay for the bill and I would reimburse him for it. 

It's brain damage and I'm always chasing the reimbursement but so far I've gotten it.  

Alternatively, if you settle, I would talk to your lawyer about asking the carrier to reimburse you for any settlement you pay her.  

I am going to buy a house and currently plan on paying the downpayment with cash.What I would like to do is after closing, take a cash advance from one of my credit cards to reimburse myself for the downpayment.

If I'm not reimbursed, I will be out about $2,400 when all is said and done, but it's the principle that this mom and pop company is blatently ripping off owners of the 135 houses and apartment buildings they manage.

--DEPENDS ON STATE title searches are typically done after a successful purchase and it is reimbursed by the property owner with redemption.

If you have to file something with the court and pay fees at 10:00am on the 6th, and then they come and pay you the rent at 1:00pm...too bad...they'll still need to reimburse you the court fees and late fees.
