It's not a bad idea to communicate with a solid agent who has their own investment properties to help you with this process.

The reason should be communicated to the tenants.Since this is a case where the landlord wishes to terminate the lease early, the landlord may want to consider offering a cash incentive to the tenants.If the tenant doesn't agree, they're legally allowed to remain tenants until the remainder of the lease.

. - Finding a Good Team: Since there is a language barrier in place it was much harder to communicate with any cleaning companies/property managers we found. 

Communication is always key. 

In August he switched to paying 50% to 75% of rent due and stopped communicating. its a month to month lease so i had to give 30 days.

This was sudden and no previous communication on listings that have hit their site previously.

Communication is challenging, most likely uninsured, but this is in-line with the budget.c) Keep searching for contractors, adding time to project and potentially costs.d) Buy scaffolding or rent scaffolding or a lift and demo myself for under $1,500, including dumpster.What would you do??

He has also played a key role in facilitating communication between the new tenants and myself, ensuring a smooth coordination of arrival times and addressing any specific needs they may have.

Might be time to look at other options ..We have good communication and they are very knowledgeable but might be over extended working on other properties . 

Are they communicating with you all the time with updates etc?
