Have you gone to a conventional bank for them to review your financials to pre-approve you? 

Easy to work with and manage online so far. 

There's an unexpected zombie thread revival and review.  

The best you can do is review your own plan. 

We spent the past couple of months fixing it up and just put it online for rent.

I form my LLCs using an online company - takes about 15 minutes and has worked just fine. 

@Jo-Ann Lapin do you know if there are any auctions (tax or foreclosure) that still take place in person or are they all conducted online now?

I wouldn't lie about anything but if for some reason they think they have tricked you they will clean thinking they will get their deposit back.Then you can quote your lease and explain they have broken it.I have had tenants suddenly start turning into lawyers and quoting some portion of they law that helps their case.It boils down to the contract they signed which is your lease.You could ask them to send the reference to law that states this for your attorney to review.

I use Landlordstation.com to screen, check social media/online presence, call employers/last landlords, and this info I kept from another post on BP a while back.
