He insists on collecting all 60 units of rent BY HAND.

I don’t feel comfortable using my faith as a means Of collecting money for my real estate endeavors.

Most of my problems come from the leases that are locked in, especially non-payment as they'll just stop paying and tell us to take them to court or send them to collections at times.

I always use the philosophy that if I can go collect rent in-person (if needed) I'm all in for that area. 

You will pay your bills out out of the checking account that collects the rents. 

The only option we've found is to:- Send to collections now for current outstanding balance - File for eviction if/when we can finally do that again - Send to Collections for final balance after eviction I don't foresee this doing much of anything in the short-term other than getting the inevitable collection process moving now.  

The primary issue is the lender is repeatedly negligent about paying taxes and insurance from the escrow they're collecting with the mortgage payments.

We understand the rent is still due and payable, but even if the tenant does not pay, it will be up to the landlord to go through l/t court or other collections post-moratorium to sue for the money. 

Then he could give every home away for free, just collect lot rent and still have a net income of around $300,000 with a fraction of the work and risk.The whole goal of an income property is to maximize the income.

I am not even going to go into mangement problems, tenant drama, domestic and violet crimes, vacancies and rent collection issues..I have seen the backend of the story as well, because I am getting calls from out of state investors, who have accumulated small portfolios of these low end properties and when they start they are loosing money after a few years they want to liquidate the portfolio which is not that easy.
