Furthermore, delaying decisions may prevent both parties from pursuing new opportunities aligned with their respective goals.Evaluate your long-term financial objectives and personal aspirations for the portfolio.

What's much more dangerous is coming in with guns blazing and getting yourself on the wrong side of a lawsuit.I have an admittedly small sample size of one with respect to inheriting existing tenants.

I respectfully disagree.

Tenants were respectful, but left in a angry way.

You have considerably less wall space, and trying to fill furniture into that one big space is often awkward resulting in a lot of wasted space that does not really do anything.And while these open floorplans are often promoted as "family friendly" I have come to the conclusion that they are a double edged sword in that respect.

I know it's not on the market right now but if you're interested in selling please call / text me at 716.555.1234.Respectfully,MikeI've sent this letter to the same owners 2-3 times.

I have three rentals, three respective sets of tenants- all have been great (for over a year now) and not one had a reference.
