She had been giving us a song and dance about the damage and how it happened.

Tell them that you would like for them to stay, that you would like them to stay long-term, and you are willing to forgo a nominal increase in rent if they sign a longer-than-year lease.Good luck!

I have spent the evening looking at FreddieMae listings, an hour away, with a complete rehab needed.....and could probably buy for a song, but that may be way too much to start.

I never take my Credit Card and/or Check Book to the meeting.My main reason for going is to Network, Network, Network. 

I've a CWP in the state of Pa for going on 2yrs now.  

The have sang that same song for 5 years now right?  

I guess my first question is if you have a mindset that you don't want to work a "traditional W-2 job", what is the driver for going to graduate school?

Brians inventory in CA can and will go retail so he can have a organized sale campaign to maximize.I am going through this right now personally with the last 11 rentals ( new construction I bought for Go zone in MS)  what we forget even though the homes were bought brand new 10 years ago.. they have now been in service for 10 years... so they need a retail rehab.. usually 5 to 10k to get them up to what your competition is selling homes for ( especially in this area).then of course its near impossible to sell a home with a renter in it.. so you need to boot the renter now you have no cash flow.. you sink 5 to 10 k into the home you have negative cash flow say 1k per month for 6 months  add on sales commish and closing costs of another 6 to 7k and there you go. you need 20 to 25k in CASH to exit.. and if your in a market were the properties have not really appreciated.. then your just giving back your positive cash flow you made for 10 years..

You get cash out at FMV and the S corp would have a mortgage on the property that you'd be responsible for going forward.
