Arlan, thank you for your response and no offense taken.

If there is no response in that time frame you will be clear of the lien amount.

I would like to separate the heat for each unit so each tenant would be responsible for paying for their usage.  

They are predicting a slow down as well but put vacancy rates to be flat and rent increases to go down from 4% from last year to 2% projected for both 2019 and 2020.If you have a deal that should get you to IRR of 15+% I wouldn't hesitate.

I appreciate all the quick responses!  

I know that before too long, he is going to at least want to slow down, so I am thinking of offering up some sort of partnership where I could take on more responsibility, get some equity in the business, and eventually buy him out upon his retirement.

Paul forums will get you more responses, so maybe re-post this over there.1) I'd advise adding a picture to your profile and filling it out a bit more- easier to have conversations (even on the forums) with someone when you can picture yourself talking to them in real life.2) I read your strategy- glad to see you've put some thought into it!

Insurance is great, but just wait until you have to deal with them, they are quick to take your money and slow to pay out in a large disaster area.

Thanks for the response, Eamonn.
