Unless you have the exact right person, you are taking too much risk and the damage can be too huge..... just pay them and carry on as usual....

There are definitely things you need to keep in mind like that most of the tenants do not have income coming in to pay for tenant caused damages.

Too much to explain here, but park owned homes due to turn over, damage, stolen appliances, wrecked ACs etc you bairly make a nickle on the home rent.  

Or someone that is nearby, not exactly in your area but has influence and a track record for success.

If the squatter incurred any additional damages I would claim those with the other broker. 

If we had made the same mistakes on a larger property, it could have been financially damaging.

How do you suppose I convince or influence him/her to do so ?

Now obviously, that is beneficial to sponsor, and less risky now for the investor being that their capital was returned back so I see how that is fine and not too horrendous, but seems to me that could damage investor returns or maybe that sponsor may lose out to a competing sponsor that doesnt restructure the termsJust curious and would love to get opinions and a conversation started, what are your thoughts and have you or anyone you know done that?

For example, "Tenant agrees to pay for the entire cost of repair of damage caused by the Tenant's willful damage or negligence."

Fast forward to having only emailed a few times in the last 2 months, both went unanswered, had a warning from my mortgage company that the hurricane may have damage it so I asked for  a virtual walk through....silence...
