I doubt Ken would service loans, I sure wouldn't, but a fool might on loans they didn't originate.            

@Travis West I doubt that it was caused by a leak though, seeing as how I could not locate any water spots on the ceiling.

I know one of the top turnket providers in the Memphis area who specializes in the lets call it $50-$60k range and he has an average of 40% late paying tenants every month, I doubt your figures are better then that considering you are not here managing the homes and most likely dont to as good of rehab as he does.  

Nothing wrong with him at all - but since coming to BiggerPockets, I've:- had my eyes opened to a much broader range of potential deal types and structures - including many who are ready to truly "partner" rather than my previous setup of simply being "sold to"- been impressed and grateful for the extent to which so many of you have been willing to answer questions I've posted on here and asked privately- gone through what I feel like is nearly an entire self-taught course on real estate investment (and no doubt with an absolute ton still to learn)- made connections with a number of you that I am confident will lead to mutually profitable business (I'll protect the names of the innocent, you know who you are)- found ample opportunities to leverage my funds - though clearly am always looking for more!

For those who insist on using the forums and only taking away and not contributing, I doubt you'll find much long-term satisfaction here or anywhere else.

I doubt he will leave easily.How did you come up with $7,000 in repairs? 

This place just has pretty decent returns and huge demand so thought would be a good learning exercise.We live out of town and thus have to budget for higher rehab costs but they will no doubt come down.Any advice and suggestions welcome!

If there are any doubts in a potential partnership, it may be best to sell the home and move on.

I doubt they will defriend you because of your changes.

I doubt they will negotiate except to further delay the process.
