The fact that someone in the past got a better deal is just part of life. 

After helping so many investors with their properties, and seeing them go on vacations, plenty of cash flow, and a virtually stress-free life (in large part due to our professional property management services), I'm ready to do it right this time. 

I want to do this because I lived abroad my whole adult life and I just moved back to the US last year.

I don't have any real life experience in doing real estate deals of any sort or haven't completed any assignments (as yet) as a property locator for anyone.

I am just starting in the real estate world and it has made my schedule busier and I struggle to make the most of my time and order my life to be the most effective.

All buildings should meet life safety codes and be in compliance with codes on smoke and fire detection, fire extinguishers, and carbon monoxide detectors.

Train the tenant (economic incentives always work) and feel the love all around, esp in your bank account.Others are technically correct (evictions, etc) though you have some issues in having already accepted payment, etc, and your time and quality of life goes straight to hell once the paperwork starts. 

Transparenc, honezty and ethics are the foundation of REI (and life in genetal) in my opinion.  

Realize, you're actually helping him improve his life.
