The problem is im not sure if that is a great idea and if it will work out.

You have to run each tenant through their paces to see if there is a real need for a workout or not.Investors are buying NNN deals.

I do have a good network of people here I will be contracting the work out to but anything I can do on my own to cut cost I am more then happy to do.

I'll even review any existing surveys for you at no charge.I hope things work out with the neighbor!

I was hoping to put that money down on the new place to lower my monthly mortgage payment (paying PMI with current mortgage), but the timing of the sale couldn't work out.

I didn't realize this was non-owner occupant property.I'm not sure of how to work out the logistics, but if the person gifting you the funds decided they wanted to be paid back, you could both sign a note for longer term payback, say 5 years with a very favorable interest rate.

A dining room can be a dining room, a play room, an office, a video game room, a workout room (yes, I've seen some of my tenants do that), or just a place for a ton of crap to land.

Bring it to them and work out the details.

If they were, the landlord should be allowed to work out a plan between the tenant and themselves, or the government should give the tenant assistance to pay their rent that is due!!

Didn't a ton of people get protected from eviction already without needing to work out "sexual arrangements"?
