I think if you try and force it though you may find that they start warning soldiers about your properties and you get "black listed".

@Michael Plaks I see you've earned your black belt in regards to this business Sir.

The family has experience with rental property and I have pretty extensive legal and business experience, so I generally think of us playing on the "Big boys and girls" program, so I am interested in candid, informed opinions on the situation.We have two multi-member LLCs which currently have no assets, but will be funded with cash from different members.

I do (hopefully) plan on expanding to more properties in the future and it would be a shame to have a deal go from black to red based on that.

I couldn't get a straight explanation from the rude girl at the assessors office, so Ill call back tomorrow afternoon and hopefully talk to someone else.If I can understand why it wasn't reassessed in 2015, I would feel a lot less like they were trying to rip me off.

@ the Black Cup?

A guy with an MBA, a six figure job, and an 826 credit score is not as likely to trash your rental as the guy who works a $10 an hour job, has a 575 credit score, and no HS diploma even...A girl I rented to had kids when she was in high school.

Laid black plastic down first to keep the weeds down and covered this with mulch.Despite there being a water spigot ATTACHED TO THE END OF THE RAISED BED the only water these poor things got from the tenants were rain that dripped off the roof. 

This is where you get into the black for the year.

I had Facebook messaged a girl I thought might be related to the seller, in an effort to reach the seller.
