Cut off all communication from the tenant, including promises to pay or attempts at negotiation, and let the lawyer clean up the mess.While your attorney is handling that, you should be looking for a property manager.You can start by going to www.narpm.org to search their directory of managers.

To mitigate the issue with social distancing, our acquisition managers travel with additional mask and gloves to provide the seller and we communicate this with them prior to the visit.

In every single case when it came to most VA, support, back office, I ended up spending 3x what I would have paid for a US Citizen hire through the same platform in revisions, communication delays, issues, fixing errors and so on. 

So far the communication is great.

We already do the basic "text book" things such as be responsive to maintenance, communicate frequently etc. 

Its nice to see people on here communicating and staying positive!

We've given them grace, kept the lines of communication open and worked with them on payment planes.

I was thinking a mile high 3 or 4 sentence idea of pricing and terms we could banter back and forth until we agree on the key items, then have the title company draft their documents.but instead he hired an attorney to draft a small book that will take me hours to digest, all for the first communication. 

I would highly suggest paying a good attorney for some time on this one as it will save you tons of headache later on.Also I don't think partnerships are bad I just take them with a cautionary approach, I've seen some very successful ones as well and it all came down to expectations were communicated and agreed upon up front and covered multiple scenarios.

Are they expecting monthly communication but you want to send quarterly or semi-annual?
