So the short answer and only advice I can give is, open communication, try and be friendly, know what concessions you're able and willing to make if the tenants need anything. 

West Coast Roofing was very good at communication and getting it done.

You will have to flex your communication muscles and your problem solving skills. 

I would not threaten him or be hostile but communicate as transparently as you can what your upset about.

2) Who does the communication with the guest? 

Education and communication are our main source for finding investors. 

When the attorneys are heavily involved there are often communication problems and very little efficiency or urgency.

Probably a covid thing but communication between title and the QI was a joke and my seller got pinched on his next purchase.  

Along with the IRS dependency on "intent" as @Chris Mills said the safe harbor has expanded into one additional way to demonstrate intent.Since you communicate with the IRS through tax filings a situation where you would purchase and rent in one year and rent some in the next year could be construed to mean that you rented it for two years. 

Hello and thanks for reading :)I'm currently working on an investment out of state and been in communication with many lenders to find out about all my available options.
