Caveat- (This is not a request for legal advice- just a dialogue- smile)

I appreciate all of the dialogue.

Sure @Sean McNamarawhat I meant by questions are those that would help me with beginning dialogue to a local banker to find it they do what you described is a "portfolio lender".

Great topic @Michael O'Byrne.I had the same internal dialogue two years ago.

I intend for my comments to be thoughtful and courteous, although they will admittedly be biased towards what I believe and have found to be true.I appreciate others like you rounding out the dialogue with insights and observations that I don't have.  

I provided her with MF flooring and painting contractors and a local maintenance guy.The late rent is pretty straight forward...that needs to be addressed on the late rent date and forward and not 30 days later with not discussion with me.We've had good dialogue and daily contact now.  

Fourth, I would start by opening a dialogue with the current tenant and see if he would meet your screening criteria and would even agree to the terms of your new rental agreement.

Sorry if the dialogue was/is vague.  

The dialogue that is created by the discussion of these concepts is beyond valuable.

These matters could always be put to a vote or an elected Board of Directors would probably be the simplest resolution.The management is in place and can be utilized or replaced as necessary.Please keep the dialogue coming as all the opinions are useful for my model.
