Using that as an excuse to get the tenant out can help spare some "feelings" where the tenant may get pissed and trash the place.

It started off well but the last few quarters have been the same excuse of why they're paying out a low (or no) dividend for each of the three portfolios.

Originally posted by Bryan Hancock: Maybe they would use it as an excuse to not pay if thing went wrong...not sure.

Also, we just landed another deal so that gives me an excuse to stay focus on stabilizing this asset in the next few months. 

Tell them you have a mortgage to pay and the bank doesn't accept the same excuses used by the tenants when payment is late and you can't pay.

This is a lame excuse, but as modules continued to unlock, I found it hard to sit down and watch them (my problem).- I also didn't like how many of the initial modules were focused on setting up a website and web-based services.

He knew we were getting the homes through assignment and a lot of questions and concerns should have been dealt with him directly instead of speaking through the wholesaler.The owner didn’t have a current lease with the one tenant and came up with an excuse for not getting us their security deposit. 

What excuse does he have for not handling this?

If you don't apply 2 coats any touch-ups you do in the later years will be noticeable....and I have heard all the painter excuses and "thick coat" arguments. 

:@benjamin maciel - since you have been here only just over a year and have so few posts, i'll try and say this as nicely as i can - I don't think you should be telling Jay Hinrichs what to think or do, nor saying he uses excuses to sit on his ***, nor POST IN ALL CAPS SAYING WHAT YOU DO LIKE YOUR STRATEGY IS BETTER THAN HIS.Hi Steve- How you took my post as disrespecting @Jay Hinrichs is confusing- I agree 100% with his post sir.
