Hi Matt,As long as the leases are active, have been active and can verify proof of rent payment, it should not be an issue.

Since they are public numbers theres absolutely no protection for us from fraud.When submitting my accord for proof of insurance that goes directly from carrier to customer, not through my hands, unfortunately people have committed fraud with that number too.

Sometimes, giving yourself a firm timeline to either move forward or reassess can help break the cycle of overthinking. 

You know that the life cycle of a company is in decline when they basically wash their hands of anything and everything, have zero sense of any reasonableness, nor the slightest interest in helping their “partners”.At this point, it’s all just a money grab. 

Like @Joel Forsythe said, have written proof of his refusal to complete and even print yout emails and texts showing that you continually requested him to finish up.Then get someone else to finish and let him sue you in SC for the balance.

I was able to get proof that my properties are on the up-and-up for lead levels, if I were to have had lead issues, it would have been a lot easier to address and remediate them while my properties are vacant vs occupied, and I'm protecting myself as an investor from potential headaches if the city does in fact start to enforce having this certification prior to evicting a tenant. 

Despite a slight dip in sales, the company plans to open 40 to 45 new restaurants this year, including 15 new Outback locations.Dine Brands Global, owner of Applebee’s and IHOP, is adapting to economic cycles with a focus on careful expansion.

There's plenty of deals out there where the life cycle would cost 30k, mostly smaller markets. 

Proof of Payment - The industry standard of documenting a mortgage that does not report on your credit is with a "verification of mortgage" (VOM) form. 

From a market cycle perspective this is probably not the best time to be getting into real estate in any form.
