Problem is the area is one I don't like, bleak job growth, low class, challenging tenant pool and needs really good, strict management.

Hey everyone, I have been doing commercial property management privately for over five years now and I'm sure most of you will agree that finding and keeping a solid tenant is the biggest challenge, yet, is the most important objective on your list at all times.I have sandwich signs posted near the main roads at all of my properties, and recently created banners to hang on windows.

Maybe the old owner realized the challenges that area will present and decided to take a loss then sink more money into.  

I had the same challenge with #4. 

@Brandon P.I do not recommend commingling your funds with those of the tenant.My opinion is to handle it like this.

Let an agent handle that for you.

Starting a business in the U.S. as a Foreign National can be challenging but I can walk you through the process.

How did you handle it and what happened to the relationship? 

I replaced my own last year and had an HVAC contractor come handle the start up.

Serious buyers will comply - - see my profile -- this is how I handled my sale.
