However since I first made an offer on this property four weeks ago I’ve seen prices nearby rise about $40K on every type of new property that’s been listed.

I would skip this for sure.Agreed, it's not legal or proper to give out the names or phone numbers of your borrowers without their permission.There's absolutely nothing inappropriate or unseemly about offering up borrowers willing to share their lender experiences with another potential borrower.The private lending landscape is littered with scammers and bad actors.

I just received the offer of renewal.

I have offered both to buy them a condo to start, but they aren't ready yet so one is renting and one lives in an ADU on my property.Single-family is strong and smart, but I like condos for younger kids because the HOA saves them of all the things they don't know how to do.

Whether you're a new landlord or have an extensive portfolio, Orlando's vibrant market offers great opportunities.To achieve true passive income, consider hiring a professional property manager.

We just put an offer on our first investment property.

Hey Alex, I thought I might offer my 2 cents from another agent's perspective.

If they are not responding they might not know how to dig out of a perceived hole with the landlord.If their business is no longer viable then maybe trying to get a payment for settlement in full.When tenants mom and pop try to go out in retail centers the goal is to try to collect enough to cover attorney fees for an (offer in compromise).If it was flex space they likely had little money.

However right now even the highest rates we can offer you for an investment are still carrying points. 

I would check and see if this is something your bank offers, or alternatively a lot of PM software has the ability to do it for a small fee too.
