Tenant paid late on a regular basis and was just a headache for him to deal with.

Good Afternoon everyone, I am currently a licensed real estate agent in Florida and a couple of opportunities are presenting themselves to me.

Good afternoon, I have a question regarding a tenant needing financial assistance to pay November rent.

You can purchase lists with different motivations like absentee owners, 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, evictions, probate, divorce, etc. and mail or cold call. 

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Let’s say I don’t go to an attorney should I ask for more money for the time that he’s late?

When a tenant was late on their rent or had a situation we felt compelled to help them after all they were struggling. so we took money from our jobs to pay what was necessary to keep these houses going after all we had mortgages, taxes, and insurance bills. but very erratic income.

You are right in that many millennials, a historically large generation, are poised to enter the market as buyers with the older millennials in their late 30s and many more of them in their early 30s.

But I'm also thinking about that phrase "Live/Rent where you want, invest in where it makes sense" and I'm not entirely sure if buying an apartment would make sense right now.I'm a little late to commenting on this, but just an additional thought based on your statement of investing where it makes sense...it may be worth it to find a super cheap place to rent and just amass funds to either buy in the DMV or in another market where you could cashflow right away.

Late fall through January is a really difficult time to find tenants so it's nothing you are doing wrong.
