The smoke is still settling and settlements are still being negotiated, subject to approval and final resolution. 

Keep your common areas clean and neat, possibly have a house cleaner come in twice a month for these areas if your budget allows it, have solid house rules that you enforce regarding at a minimum quiet hours, parking, smoking, pets, and visitors just for starters and be sure to run it like a business and decide if you will have month to month terms, 6 month terms or yearly terms.

For example, somebody who violates the non-smoking rule: written notice, first fine $25, second fine $100, etc. 

There isn't a silver bullet tool. 

My loads our smoking fast. 

It is my belief when the smoke settles, listing agents will tactfully educate their seller on the importance of having buyers agents hustle on their behalf. 

Your Network = Your Net-worth"Been watching Evernest's video's and they share a ton on "everything and anything" property management related so that's been a blessing.Biggest take away when it comes to scaling a PM is to spread the word about what you're looking at doing and to build relationships.Local real estate events, NARPM, IMN, etc...You want everyone to think of you if they are looking at selling or if they know of anyone looking at selling.I use to be "loud and proud" and a huge extrovert but I guess "old age" has got me hahaI prefer drinking coffee and smoking a cigar behind closed doors.But, I guess I'll have to start "shaking hands" and "kissing babies" like a president when it comes to networking again lolMaybe even do a few video's while not wearing any pants heheBig hat's down to Matthew Whitaker for scaling the business so much.I remember spending some time together in Birmingham when he had a decent sized operation of around 1,200 units or so.Now they are 16,000+ 👏HUGE...We initially met as I was interested in selling our property management company in Toledo and now we are looking at acquiring others heheTime flies, things change and life is funny.Thanks everyone for your contribution and wishing you much success

It's slowing down though, most of their money the last 30 days has gone to gold, silver, and bitcoin.

The issue is, they hold all the cards.They have the guest's payment information and process refunds erroneously all the time.I had a guest complain of a smoke smell the day AFTER they checked out and claimed they never stayed in the apartment because of it.

Apparently the soot/smoke smell is very hard to get out of the remaining structure.
