I still tried to reason with her to see if we could repair this, but she hired a personal injury lawyer (who happens to be a cleaning client of her) to start emailing me demanding I give her $125,000 for her 1/2 of the business, or else they are going to file a lawsuit.

Are you doing it yourself or hiring a contractor that specializes in it?

Don't hire an agent if youre trying to avoid agent costs.

Hire Reliable Contractors: Build a network of dependable contractors who can handle multiple projects simultaneously.

If I were you, I would purchase a duplex or triplex if you're able and make sure you learn the local tenant/landlord laws inside and out or hire an experienced property manger.

That calculation is so simplified that it doesn't even bother to factor into the equation any costs  and that $200K just magically appears out of thin air. 

Learning what it takes to properly manage properties will serve you well even if you hire a manger in the future.Good luck and reach out if you want to chat!

@Jae Yoo you have a few options:1) Hire an attorney to write a threatening letter.

My best suggestion is to hire a real estate agent.

I could be wrong..Also since your a licensed agent why don't you just start your own company and hire experience managers to work for you..
