I would add that if there are other renters they too will start requesting/demanding other improvements or perhaps even claim discrimination or preferential treatment and even a law suit!

For example, are you:Looking for a lead management solution to process and follow-up with leads in a consistent and scalable, yet personalized manner?

Can a real estate investor find a solution to this so everyone wins?

Not making the tenant responsible for maintenance and repairs (yes, there are legal ways to do this despite what your state's landlord tenant law dictates) Sometimes the biggest mistake is the belief that one solution fits all circumstances.

An attorney might even help shorten this period by asking for an immediate eviction due to potential violent activity...that would depend on the judge.The only other solution I can think of that might have avoided issues would have been to evict the tenant for possession only, i.e. for rehabbing, remodeling, repairing the unit, etc. and avoid creating issues.  

Then consult with your CPA & attorney to utilize the most appropriate solution for your situation.

Money often buys solutions. 

I am just offering a legitimate solution based on my experience.

and what is "aging an LLC" I saw someone speak of in another post.Finexaminer - it seems forming your articles of incorporation and operating agreement is what allows for such flexiliblity and is where you elect for certain tax treatment et cetera.

Your solution may be partially practical and political.Work out the numbers and show the city how you are willing to acquire property based on a rough plan that includes their punch list of improvements for compliance.
