There's a good chance the issue(s) you face has already been discussed and answered.Ask questions in the appropriate forum.

A way around the whole issue is something we occasionally consider.  

I'm not sure I would get to cute trying to squeeze every time out of it now with a lease that might cause you issues in the future, but the scenario you describe is common and probably smart. 

But if this company Tardus was selling these notes and getting comp .. they are going to have issues if they are not licensed RAs or broker dealers..

The most valuable lessons are issues that stop you in your tracks and you devote time and effort to solving them.  

And also that rates are just going to continue to be an issue, so it's likely something to plan for in rent rates and/or overall investment costs. 

Hi first post here just looking for advice, I rent a multi family home 2 unit for about 15 years have been lucky to have both units rented for 10 years no issues, well until now.

I understand this is not a requirement, but I have never received a damaged unit from an inherited tenant or any legal issues.

Since Landlords are going to be monitored even more now with the price gouging issues surrounding the fires in LA, I would be extra cautious.

Our main issue is these properties are owned in an LLC.
