If the tenant is willing to allow the vendor in unsupervised, that's an agreement they can make themselves.I only escort the vendor if there's a legitimate reason to assist or if I want to use it as an opportunity to inspect.

Reasons I like multifamily vs retailI have a more diverse customer base. 

Have you talked to them about applying for the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP)?

If anyone can assist with a recommendation it would be greatly appreciated.

I recommend finding a realtor that your can partner with and becoming an assistant.

@Patrick Prunty would a credit card with a $15k - $20k limit and an introductory 0% interest rate for 1 year be a good option to assist Alex with funding repairs? 

Can I separate out the heat on the lease, become a “vendor” (create another business entity) and require tenants to apply for heat assistance - thereby getting paid for the heat?

What are y'all seeing here lately in the market and who needs assistance?

I would love to show how I can assist you in acquiring new properties and selling properties if you wish to do so.

On one hand, inflation is assisting with a rise in real estate prices.
