What a crap deal :/1.

I give you all props for dealing with this crap!!

Sure some people see properties as a cash cow as long as the payments go in, they might not care about the method - the house can look like crap for years, renters could be an annoying nuisance to the entire neighborhood - maybe fine for them, but that’s not me or the mission of my company.

I, being me, would however play along and see what kind of convoluted crap he comes up with.....just for fun and education.

If it was created after July 2 1982 don't put up with their crap.

My number one criteria for buying in a location is having a reliable a trustworthy team to handle my investment for me.Seriously, everything mentioned here is important but if my property management team is crap... read some of the comments from some of the other investors about how bad their property management teams are.

These two incentives combined can add up to $7000+ in move in costs alone never mind first and last months rent.So....considering that most people who can afford $3,000+ dollar apartments usually have good steady jobs, and are not the types of people who let their dogs crap all over their place, eat the woodwork, or otherwise destroy their home, I’m wondering what benefit I really get from having a deposit on hand.

If they are selling their own liens they must be selling them at a premium to make a profit or they are selling the crap they don't want. 

However, personally for me, I feel that you have stumbled upon a niche market with which you can milk the crap out of.

I didn't read the replies, crap happens, you will be ripped off, cheated, stolen from.
