The seller will want to see proof of funds like a bank statement or a pre-approval letter with your offer, so that they know you won't back out due to financing.

Is there a standard letter that I need to send tenants a month before the end of their lease to remind them to move out by the end of the term?

I agree with just about everyone above that the price should be either discussed upfront or in the engagement letter before services began.It's different to know how much they saved you because tax preparation typically isn't a service to save you taxes, you'll want to meet with them during the year for this.

My background is a flipper, so my campaigns are usually simple letters/postcards offering cash and a fast close.

I didn't owe anything, but I had sold my car to someone who racked up several thousand in parking fines and then promptly disappeared so they tried to flip the charges back on me as I was the only one left with money to collect.I called an attorney who sent them a cease and desist letter along with a warning that they would be liable for substantial damages if they ever contacted me again (and we would sue if they did).

After everything was said and done I gave a verbal offer of 150k and followed up with a tactic of Letter of Intent having three offers.

Some of the Yellow Letter information applies and some doesn’t.Experience and reading through some of the more technical information on finance, real estate and marketing discussed elsewhere on BP is the only way to move from beginner to a level where you can earn a sustainable income.

(Unless specifically specified by statute or legal agreement, both of which are unlikely).The court doesn't always look at the "letter" of the incident, they look at the intent.

Next, I would send a letter, or go talk to the tenant in person, and let them know that it has come to your attention that they have been smoking "in" the apartment and that per their lease that is not allowed.

Super glad it worked out for you and @Shawn Faris, I would not look at it as a mistake that you made, it was an experience that has opened you up to learn something new and in the end, she reached out to apologize.I would hold onto that letter/email for your records.We all learn as we go and without some of these horrible experiences we would not learn something new.So as horrible as the experience was, embrace it, learn from it, add an abandonment clause to your future leases and move on.Do not blame yourself for not seeing this coming.
