Time is the most precious resource though & I only fight when I think I can win. 

They are nothing but slum lords who cheat everyone and pull the wool over peoples eyes with trashy/shoddy improvements"  Your comment was offensive to all of us who work hard and fight daily on behalf of our clients.

Even though she may be wrong about what the lease allows, I would MUCH rather just agree to part ways and find a new tenant rather than getting into a battle over what the lease allows and having to constantly worry and fight about it.

Either way don't leave her there,, hard to move on but at this point it's probably the best and easiest way to have her know it wasn't her fault she has to leave and fighting it won't be of any benefit to her. 

Michael good luck with the fight.

He says he will fight this in court and will not leave.

It just seems to me that it would be easier to bring things up to or at least closer to market rents with a new tenant instead of fighting that battle with a current tenant who is used to lower rents.  

My bank disagrees with the report and is fighting it with the appraiser.

Putting it on the market you might get investors fighting over it or homeowners that will fix it up and you might get more than it's value now but if you partner with someone else to get the work done you might have the buyers clawing at each other for the higher end property.  

So he may have found out that if he tried to kick them out, they threatened to a legal fight over title so now he wants to unload.
