It always depends on how you crunch the numbers though; I have been accused of calculating too low on vacancy/repairs, while you may be very conservative!

@Les Jean-Pierre The news from New York about AirBNB is interesting and likely trend setting.I read last week that Stephen Ross of The Related Group has asked his residential property managers and tenants to keep an eye out for AirBNB use in their properties.As the deep pockets (aka bigger), large owners such as The Related Group likely want to avoid being accused by NYS of supporting a concept that requires regulation.Many cities globally follow New York's lead on policy (e.g., the smoking ban in restaurants). 

I was past my inspection period but we both wanted the sale to go through the following day.Yeah, you can't engage at the level accusations or of misrepresentation.  

Thanks @Bob Malecki this is my first note so I didn't even know you could sell partial (although it's a pretty small one to begin with.Rick H. haha, I've never been accused of not being an action taker, you'll have to get to know me better.  

At 30 years old, I got to witness my father's former employer use the court system to screw him and other retirees out of their healtcare benefits. 

Seller is either:Not doing regular repairsUninformedLying Always ask for repair invoices and if owner doesn’t have them, call the vendors.Ask to verify last years P and L, this years P and L, current rent roll.Never accuse, play dumb if numbers don’t add up.

Sure I could be tough and nail them with $50 late fees every time, but I would rather build a good relationship with them and keep them for many years by working wit them.  

While waiting for my investor to show up I literally witnessed about 4-5 drug transactions take place 15 feet away from the property.  

Will do Ryan, I planned on that as a witness anyway, Ill let you all know how it goes.I also know Mahoneys in Columbus and Omaha.

There have been people on the BP podcast, like Clayton Morris, who have since been accused by BP users of major fraud.
