@Richard Dunlop  nope I mentor for free.. but I am choosy so far I have not chosen anyone to mentor.actually truth be told when I do something with someone its the opposite they usually make a lot of money not spend it... !! 

So although it's legal for me to make tenant still live in the house, but as "human" with "human decency" I give them many concessions.

I mention this to say that no time of the week is 'good' for us, so we will do our best with whatever gets chosen if folks are getting together.

If better say you have a Wolf stove and it has an old electric, you have a pool and it doesn't, or view... a human appraiser might do better, maybe, maybe not... 

I really can't recommend EDEN enough, they're much easier to work with than CMHA, and just on a human level their programs are really reaching the people most in need of stable housing.

The consultant has an important role to play and should be chosen carefully.

As for investing in an MTR in Austin, you've chosen a super cool town that is uber popular and the costs reflect that.

I would let them know that you plan to honor that lease as long as they do the same, and if they are unable to pay I would make if very clear that I would be moving forward with eviction in accordance with the lease.There is a way to be a good human and help tenants out when they are in need but it's a fine line to walk as there are many that will absolutely take advantage of that charitable nature. 

We're all about evicting fools and cleaning up human poop, but we don't want to that far to do so.

We have chosen to target international students.
