HMLs will sometimes charge 1-2 points or a fixed amount.In Texas, there is a form filed in the real property records noting the new maturity date and any other modified terms. 

TL:DR- Tenant withholding rent due to not going to get deposit back, which there is no record of.

I can’t figure out where to even find the eviction records here.

I would suggest a person who has a track record to lean on seek portfolio lending, in that instance it is up to their internal policy for such and even then a deviation can be requested and they meet, discuss, and let you know. 

What does it mean when a property has parcel taxes sold in its records?

I'm also willing to bet here that the major difference in record count is coming from the property type.

Talking to them and explaining that if they don't pay the rent, that is your only option and you don't really want to put an eviction on their record...but you will if needed.

Do not mingle your funds/expenses with personal funds/expenses.Meetings and decisions must be recorded and kept for review if requested by a court.Different states have different rules, so you'll want to consult with an attorney who specializes in LLCs inform you about what your duties are so you can peform them.  

@Jeffrey SmithThe answer is, make sure you record the transaction and get the deed/ title.You get the tax break because you own it

A track record is important.
