Thanks,Harish. this would be typical of a larger commercial transaction.. what you can do is pay the appraiser and the Phase one company direct.. its usually done that way.

It is basically like a wiki page for our company.

However, the average lifespan of companies is 10 to 18 years, so every private-sector job your tenants have will eventually disappear.

I would get a slab/foundation company out there to take a look at the property and see what the quote is to repair it.

I'm a managing partner at a company that can assist with this.

For example, the insurance company offers you $100k.

Is there some reason that you or the company simply don't discuss what happened and use this as an opportunity to turn a negative post into a positive one for the company?  

Was it indeed just locked, or did the latch mechanism fail, which often happens with bedroom sets that have plastic components in that mechanism; or did the screws that secure the latch into the door come loose, allowing the latch and/or the screws to prevent the door from opening...also not an uncommon event.

I personally think they are a good company (that's why I hired them) but they may be too 'busy' for small fish like us.

Cash flow is definitely the biggest challenge; both in terms of finding properties to buy that cash flow with a loan on them and just company wide given interest rates and labor/material is up and, at least where I'm at in Jackson County, MO, taxes are way up too.
