Assuming the lease has written terms on the topic, or the laws defines abandonment timelines, I would have given abandonment notice, had the pet picked up by animal control, locked the door and waited per the law before tossing is belongings.You can summon anyone to court that is in jail/prison, the police will just serve them in their cell, and deliver them to the court hearing.You really need to take some time and read over the landlord laws for your state: https://www.tn.gov/health/cedep/environmental/healthy-homes/hh/renters.html

In this post, I am looking for advice on how to find "how you can" (not "why you can't") attorney in Boston to strategize around the offer letter:- deliver rented or not? 

In a nutshell, a handyman and his wife (she was looking to get into the PM space) but when she found out what it actually takes to become an "official" PM (real estate license etc) she decided to do what you're describing... coordinating maintenance calls, delivering notices, filing papers with section 8, lockouts, etc. 

Keep in mind that most investment opportunities e.g. buying a house and renting it will generate good % returns if done right but deliver low $ returns.  

So even if my emails delivered, I'm unsure if this is the best way to reach my prospects. 

We’ve delivered over 470 properties and none experienced the problem you described.

Clearly more due diligence than in the US is needed given that you generally have to pay most of the purchase price before the property is built and delivered.

To evict a tenant for nonpayment of rent, the landlord must "serve" (deliver) a Seven-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit to the tenant."

I am hoping that the PM mgmt change delivers the results that an out-of-state investor needs to be confident investing in Birmingham.Have a great day! 

Unless you have $100 million of more to invest you WILL NOT be able to hire the pros that are talented enough to consistently deliver results above the median.
