Plus who wants to go fishing in Sacramento!

What infuriates me the most is he targets people in the south and people who go to church, in other words people with traditional values who are more susceptible to his "be prudent, save money, no debt, invest in mutual fund" snake oil.

Am afraid your lease was not descriptive enough and may have a tough time in court.Take this as a lessons learned and start working on improving your lease from the things you are seeing with current tenants and then wait it out if you can, which you seem to indicate you can do.Even with a very tight lease, I paid close to $3000 in evictions not to mention the heartache from tenants that I inherited on my first duplex purchase where I lived on one side and rented the other.I will never again inherit tenants.These ones moved in an extra person a year and a half in, despite lease saying not to, smoked marijuana and cigarettes in house despite lease saying not to and worse, I lived on property so they became very sneaky about how they broke their lease and these was just a nightmare.I hate evictions, but I equally hate bad tenants and tenants that I have not personally screened and that is why I refuse to take on tenants at property purchase.I also always, always do unit inspections.I just did one yesterday and glad I did, which I had initially decided I would not do, but nope, get in there and see how your property is being maintained.My fairly new tenant seems to have an issue with basic housekeeping.There was a smell in the unit, which I still cannot figure out what it is, but brought it to their attention and will be following up, he has a car that leaks oil endlessly on my newly resurfaced concrete driveway and garage flow, has a ring in toilet bowl that is also stained and smelling toilet from lack of cleaning.It pains me to see a unit that I took great care of when I lived in it to see what it is quickly turning into but I am nipping that in the butt right now.Dirty tenants can be a liability to any landlord, but overall tenants will try to test you and see just how vigilant you are and how much they can get away with.I also make notes on what I want to update on my next lease when I run into issues.Pets?

North toward oil dale is nice if the oil industry picks back up but volatile.

They aren't good for your business and similar fish swim in the same scummy pond.

Oh I haven't talked to you in ten years, I would love to hear your sales pitch about your crappy overpriced essential oils that are completely worthless.    

But you're the rock star - You just moved to a different geography (with better fishing), into better cash flow, set yourself up for retirement, and did it without paying any tax using the 1031 exchange.  

When Saudi started pumping more oil, gasoline dropped dramatically all over.

Do they communicate well, do their vehicles leak oil or are messy, do they enjoy talking to people, do they smell like cigarettes? 

Now the broker or agent knows you do not really want an exclusive relationship and are just fishing for deals from anyone and everyone.I am on the commercial real estate side.
