You agreed to void the lease contract because you felt the bad situation warranted an early move out, then by that admission, wouldn't it also warrant the return of her security deposit? 

Basic admission starts at $97, and goes up from there.

So either you witnessed it which means you should report the crime of theft of services or else you just guessed which is not so good.Anyway my point in all of that is all these complaints happen regardless of whether its a short term renter or an owner (by your own admission).

I would also check with the admissions office and review their student visa to see that it is current (getting a student visa is not trivial).

I wouldn't want my real name, city, and admission of guilt published online.

Some old buddies of mine were randomly talking about Zimbabwe on facebook, and as the conversation progressed I ended up posting parts of an old college essay I wrote about the country's 2009 economic recovery.

Besides, by his own admission: "this property has actually been cash flowing most of the time"Seems to me he ain't got no argument.

As an Investor time is of the essence and access to reliable information can be worth the price of admission.

They can debate all they want, make claims, etc...but by their own admission they did not close....and they ARE holding themselves out as an unlicensed broker.

Your silence will be perceived as an admission of guilt.
