Should I request the funds via a cashier's check or wire transfer?

I see on their website that they have approximately thirty days to response to permit requests...

When calling the IRS have a fax number handy and request that they fax the levy release. 

Currently, we request payment from our 5 individual tenants via Venmo or PayPal.

. :-) Yes, repairs and maintenance can be hassle free, until you have to gently remind the landlord about the maintenance request you made x days/weeks ago.

I can help you on your request.

Here's kind of the flip side of your request.  

Make a public records request from the police dept for the calls to this property.

You have to request a business permit/license from the state you are conducting business if your LLC is not physically in that state.

I have yet to check the MLS for details on what may have happened with the prior listings but I will do so soon.I would also be happy to run a few comps for you if that helps (no creepy Realtor motives just one investor helping another), but I won't be able to get to it until Monday...but yes requesting a rent roll (T12) and a contractor walkthrough/inspection are solid ideas for sure.
