Sure some people got the short stick in life but most times the "short stick" is self inflicted.

As a direct mail specialist I'm likely a bit prejudiced however considering all the agony inflicted by unwanted texts and phone calls these days, it's likely that your message stands a better chance to be seen/heard via direct mail.

In other words was it going to be a real PITA for the landlord to do the necessary repairs with a tenant in there....or a huge inconvenience for the tenant that the landlord didn't want to inflict....Or was it an OPTIONAL move, offered but not required by the landlord?

“The severe decrease in restaurant traffic has severely decreased our cash flow and inflicted a tremendous financial blow to our business,” CEO David Overton wrote to landlords in a letter obtained by the Eater website.I look forward to Heather Frusco denouncing Cheesecake Factory as being run by thieves.

Please be aware that with this type of occupant, you must consider the 'retribution damage' they might inflict on the property before eviction takes place.

The collateral interest assigned is different from an equity funded note than a note funded by cash.Any borrower/buyer who devises agreements to substitute collateral in an installment sale and convinces a seller to accept such an agreement is really crossing several lines, they can be terminating the contract, they can be inflicting undisclosed tax liabilities on the seller and they can be a party to fraudulently convincing the seller to releasing collateral as well as taking an improper security interest i a financing agreement.A substitution of collateral can be agreed to by a lender funding a loan with cash, they can release any collateral and accept other collateral interests.When a substitution of collateral is made in connection with a cash funded transaction between private parties, (an investor's LLC is not a lender and is a private party) that will be viewed under a microscope to ensure that sufficient value of collateral is the same or better and that such value is not based on the borrower's opinion.
