I've only listened to podcasts on my daily commute for the last couple months until recently.

You should always opt for the title insurance, regardless. 

As an aside, the tenant has also been several days late to pay rent for the last few months, but I am having a hard time faulting them due to the hardship from the increased utility bills.I'm not a shady guy and I want to make this right, I just don't know the best way to do so.

The property was seller financed and the last payment was paid for over a decade ago and we've been using the property for business since. 

I have been primarily focusing on the scottsdale area over the last year, and I am starting a new fix and flip project in a few weeks.  

BP had a great post on this last year, shared by @Brandon Turner BP Portfolio LoansGood luck!

I found a great SFR in a very friendly family neighborhood built in the last 25 years (less maintenance risk).  

2) Have you lived in the home 2 out of the last 5 years?

Write it up as a personal letter.When you do all that, then contact a local RE Agent to give you a list of all the houses in that neighborhood that have sold in the last 5 years with all cash.

Too bad I didn't see this until just now - @Robin Maza and I were at BREIA last night as well.
