Hi @Brandon Schlichter,If the tenants are not maintaining the property and following the treatment protocol you may need to look at how long they have in their lease.

You wont benefit financially from having an LLC and the liability insurance is much more affordable than setting up and maintaining the LLC for liability protection.

Cashed out a retirement account (paid the penalty) for downpayment on duplex - better return nowPrivate Money- This is my next deal- friend is inventor of Rollerblades and I am meeting this summer with his good friend who is a big time RE developer in NYC.

Send her some flowers with a note saying thanks for doing such a good job maintaining our credit standing with the loan on the house and I shouldn't have asked for you to sell a home you love.

However, working people tend to want a better maintained unit with slightly better appliances and cosmetics than college students.Feel free to connect with me.

I like maintaining control.  

I believe maintaining a good relationship with your tenants.  

I still maintain in this situation a 50/50 split is the way to go.

A wise old timer taught me early on the first rule to making a butcher shop pay.

I also called the IRA company to see what they could do and they basically told me nothing - I should contact my CPA.I pay this company a whole lot of money each year to maintain my and my wife's SDIRAs.
