Securing funding has been challenging, particularly because my business documents reflect low revenue from only one duplex, and I am currently between jobs.I have identified a reasonably priced piece of land and have saved a small portion of the funds from my duplex sale to invest in this venture.

The attorney general office scanned all the hard copy pages I mailed, attached the PDF file to an email they sent me, saying that they are sharing my correspondence with their Consumer Protection Division.

@Sean O'Keefe, Can I get a copy of the file? 

I have no concerns about the owner filing for bankruptcy or any issues with a bank.

PM's will keep all late fees, they hold the security deposits so they collect all the interest on security deposits. 

They usually have a process for filing a claim with the city for damage caused by them, and they may be willing to cover it.

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

.- Logically, there really is no additional security provided with both keyed doorknob & deadbolt, but a deadbolt is more secure than a keyed doorknob.- Since you need a key to lock a deadbolt when you leave the premises, tenant's can't lock their key(s) in the home and then pester us to come let them back in.--- Tenants can still lose their keys outside their home:(

We discussed this in an earlier post.Obviously, if loans are being made without any provision in the Operating Agreement, it’s time to get in touch with your State Securities Protection Division - usually a part of the State Attorney General Consumer Protection Agency.

Legal Protection – It's important to have a solid contract in place, typically a promissory note and a security agreement that outlines the loan terms, interest rates, repayment schedules, and collateral (often the property being financed).
