If you have a proper check in/out sheet that they signed off on all plumbing on AND if you have a section stating that the tenant must notify you of any maintenance issues as soon as they are discovered then you can technically hold them responsible for it.

Howver, only do so after taking the technical training required to understand the collateral (real estate value and title).I have no direct knowledge of the depth or sufficiency of Eddie's training nor what knowledge you walked away with.

I can write technical letters and reports all day, but could use some inspiration on how to write a little more interestingly/creatively.

Not wanting to deal with the taxes and crap I called a staffing firm, it worked great cause if I didnt like that person they sent me another one after 4 times I find a great person who was with us for several years.

A tenant can technically walk out of a 3-year lease as easy as he can a 1-year, but at least the 3-year lease is in place and the tenant plans to own the property later so why would he want to leave anyway?

Technically we raised the value of property A, but only to be in line with what everyone else in the market is currently paying.

Yes, I agree the places I'm looking to focus look random at first site- basically I'm from Michigan, have a business interest in southern California, and technically call Portland my home- although you can probably consider me more of a nomad- my primary business keeps me out of country about half the year.

Well, all the clubs that don't know the guy, so technically you could even say you are him.  

Technically you could sue/threaten to sue the tenant, but collecting money from people not living in a house is often very difficult.

Even though this may technically be a flip, it does not preclude him from considering capital gains treatment.
