If the tenant then refuses I would write a letter as follows (have it delivered certified so they have to sign for it):Date/Time:__________"Dear tenant,Unfortunately for both of us there has been unexpected damages to your rental unit during construction being done in the upper apartment.

We know it's required to use a process server to deliver notices to tenants.

When we started asking them about certain things getting done they would always over promise and under deliver.

When I have a tenant I am uncomfortable delivering the notices to, I use my process server that serves our evictions. 

Stand at the front desk and demand to be seen NOW, do not accept any excuses.Once you get in demand your lawyer write a letter insisting for immediate return of funds and demand that he/she personally delivers it to the seller and then stand there until the seller signs.

> Identify raw land > hire contractors to build > get plans, deliver to the lender (me), and get approved> the loan gets approved and you close escrow.

My rentals are delivered pest-free when the tenant moves in and the Tenant is responsible for keeping them that way.

Maintaining long-term financial independence is only possible if rents keep pace with inflation.After selecting a location, interview property managers to identify a tenant segment with a high concentration of reliable tenants.Buy what your selected segment is willing and able to rent.We’ve delivered close to 500 investment properties and I did not decide on any of the properties :Where to buyWhat to buyThe property typeThe property configurationThe renovation componentsEverything was defined by the tenant segment we want to occupy our properties.If you make decisions based on your financial goal and not other people’s opinions, you should do well.DM me if you have questions.

And if you are trying to just have one delivery charge for appliances and having the stove delivered (and you are not picking up yourself), that could mean bringing other appliances earlier as well. 

So far, we’ve delivered over 480 investment properties.
