Landlord judgments can also make it hard to rent in the future, something worth reminding them as a reason to work with you to pay the debt...Another option is offer them a cash settlement verbally for a tiny portion of what is owed.

@Sandy GabinI once had a tenant who received a big cash settlement from a divorce and wanted to pay to redo my entire kitchen.

Do I have to watch the insurance company to make sure I get a fair settlement or are they honest.

But good contractor's quotes usually don't look like an insurance settlement with 21 linear ft of baseboard at $x/lf, and painting that baseboard at $y/lf, and a quote ends up with 87 lines of itemized crap, but you're still not really sure whether all those pieces add up to the whole project that you're looking for.If you get a quote like that, it's almost always a GC who subs out every single thing he quotes, rather than having any of his own employees and sourcing materials himself.

That you consider what you have already paid in hotel bills to be a settlement for any inconvenience to them.

After settlement, would I have to deal with non paying tenant?

It's possible you'll get some kind of settlement from the bankruptcy, depending on how it all shakes out.  

Hopefully, you can find something else in your criteria that will allow you to deny them.I happened to be researching discrimination settlements last night and found this website on settled cases:https://www.fairhousingcoach.com/category/online-a...It's an eye-opener.

In BK filings, the parties will often reach some kind of settlement within 6 months, and the creditor May begin receiving “protection” payments at this point.3.

I am willing to speak with Mr Piazza to see if we can renegotiate a settlement, but Mr Reynal is on his own.Ron Blum, PrincipalAtlas
