buying property with a partner who i was emotionally tied to, then she needed to occupy the property. getting money from her became a task like pulling teeth. needless to say she hardly ever paid. so in the between times of us not having tenants i paid the full balance of the mortgage. on top of all else our relationship began to sour and work needed to be done on the property but i didn't want to be around her so i was reluctant to do what i needed to do to make the deal work. point is; no more emotional partnerships. they do more damage than good. and someone is going to lose!
