Does not effect the eviction at all as the full rent minus $300 is still outstanding

When the market is weak, you'll be fighting for scraps to try and get enough sales to justify the cost of your license.You can already write your own contracts and save commission, so what's the point?

The buyer got their $625k and we used the extra $21k to pay for closing costs for both parties, fees and some outstanding bills on the house.

Outstanding!

You have grounds to break the lease and the landlord will most likely put up a fight which can easily be remedied by giving him options:  break the lease without penalty or code enforcement can be asked to determine if the egress is acceptable. 

Outstanding information.

Yes when you got your 2022 bill, it should have shown the outstanding balance from the previous year(s). 

Thanks but no thanks for this kind of advice of having a property manager.Because you're doing such an outstanding job yourself...... 

Ohhh.... you really want to open up a cauldron of things to discuss/fight about eh!?

I ask for any code violations on the property, history of permits, outstanding permits, outstanding water bills, zoning district and compliance and litigation that might be ongoing.
