If he ever moves, I'll have a breakdown ;)Once we sent a baby gift to a tenant - they responded a few months later by not telling us about a job loss, and simply stopped paying rent and communicating.

We describe our management style and set the foundation for communication.

Then you'll run into major headache of communications, fixing stuff and other.

I'll absolutely communicate my intent.

Your condo board president is stealing from everyone in the building, not just you.At this point, I would have my lawyer communicate to the condo board president that you're going to pursue criminal charges unless the president 1) agrees to immediately step down, and 2) pay for all of your legal fees and the money that was wrongfully appropriated for personal use.

They need to take photos, keep a record of any and all communication with the landlord, as well as any inspections they have done, need to keep bids, reports, etc.

On the ones that are upside down, more often then not your communication will be with the lender that is carrying the note. 

I even use Skype and TeamViewer to communicate with clients so I'd highly recommend looking for one of the best with great references that interviews well with you.So look for someone you can connect with that works out for your situation.Feel free to ask here if you have questions.

We repeat some key points from the core rental agreement in the property rules as well, for emphasis and for ease of finding.Successful tenancies usually start with clear expectations communicated in writing and explained verbally.

I rate integrity, communication and reliability at the top.
