So they do not have a trustworthy tenant screening service.Note that Emily said she could not discuss details of the Tenant Report since Tellus was the customer and not I, since this was sent to them through a Tellus account.

Diversification and Hedging our bets are ways that we protect ourselves from suffering a loss.

I have some clients with $1M and others with $10M+.If a tenants guests falls on your entrance steps and becomes paralized, you can bet your bottom dollar $1M isn't going too far.I feel better myself knowing I get $5M for about $3,600 a year ($300/month).

Bet she doesn't flush them again.

If there is tenant turnover but <2 days vacancy in between tenants then I bet owners would be happy to pay the "renewal bonus" or whatever you want to call it.

And I bet it needs a little work also, right? 

@Geoffrey Klein - I also think siding is your best bet. 

Adding to Matt M. comment about using mapei, ardex and henrys etc. would be your best bet.

Everyone's situation is different though, your best bet is to start reaching out to lenders to get a feel for what's out there.

This autoshop belongs to my family.I am trying to keep the project as cheap as possible, looking for good trustworthy and cost-effective crew.
