Hi, we had a new renter move in May 2022, they did not change the bills to their names for few months at the beginning, after many calls and text messages they finally took the water and electricity bills to their names. they paid us back for the bills we already paid. but the problems still continue as they don't pay their water bill now, we just got a letter from the water company that they are 3 month due (ever since they change the name) The water bill now on their name but it is attached to the address so if they accumulate charges the city may place a lien on the property.

@Celeste Carter-McAfee your PSA should address this situation when units are not rent-ready.

I found about 50 properties that look like I can add value to them, I found the owner's address on the county website, and I skiptraced for many of the owner's phone numbers.

Let them know that you are performing the annual/semi-annual inspection and then address any issues identified. 

DM me for the web address if you're interested in checking it out.

Try to avoid giving this person more money, when they owe you money.If they are ghosting you, find their home address and show up at their front door. 

Whether or not it is helpful in your specific situation and if yes, whether it is cost-efficient is a different question, best addressed by your accountant.

PM me its address so I can buy it. 4% interest rate is awesome for a CC.

While I agree that the landlord could potentially be on the hook for these things, I also feel like these issues can easily be addressed within the terms of our agreement.

Where do I start if I know the home address?
