The tenant's response was that she is in Seattle on a work trip and she mailed a check from there (obviously not in time to arrive before the 5th) and because of this, is asking me to waive any late fees.  

Well, upon arriving to Arizona Ben started doing webinars for us in which he discussed the local market and the steps he was taking to figure out how to get his foot in the door in this new location.

On all the loan comparable numbers, I added back in the down payment to arrive at my numbers.

Assuming you had a licensed property manager, filing bankruptcy will kill his real estate license too.If he filed Chapter 7, and you have a secured note (recorded mortgage, or even recorded land contract), you can petition the court to release the property and have it deeded back to you now, instead of waiting until the end of bankruptcy. 

From your comments, it appears as if you have arrived at Jackson by a process of elimination, not necessarily in-depth research into the market.   

I always arrive a few mins before customers to make sure every light in the home is on, and blinds are set to allow more light in.Also, whatever room/feature you feel is the 'best' (watch your customers for clues here to see how they react to), make sure that when you end the tour and are ready to do your final chat/sales talk you are in that best room.

While you could apply a capitalization rate to the NOI figures to arrive at a "value", this is a bit of a short-circuit.  

Cole Black As long as you can show the listing agent qualified math on how you arrived at your offer price, it is what it is.

People are on vacation, they are having fun, they aren't thinking about the neighbor who has to get up to work the next morning, or the senior who want's to hear the birds in the morning, not a basketball at 7am or the crew arriving home at midnight.   

When my friends family arrived they were astonished to see what had happened.Now the prop manager is not only saying my friend broke the lease early and will be charged for that but for also abandonment of the property, and leaving the “trash” (her personal property that they went thru and took what was valuable) in the property.They have billed her over 2k in frivolous charges and sent the bill to a collections company.Is there anyone here that can help point us in the right direction to get this settled?
