I need advice on how to confront a slum landlord that benefits both sides.

And you get the benefit of having over 40 past ones to catch up on.Locate and attend 3 different local REIA club meetings great place to meet people gather resources and info.Here you will find wholesalers who provide deals and rehabbers.Two Great reads, I bought both J.

One benefit I have is they have no idea who I am so I can easily pass myself off as a maintenance man. lol Worst case I can handle 6 month inspections myself but I'll have to ask around to other PM's.

Essentially it's about building, fostering and growing relationships.
