I would also remind you and other landlords that having clauses in your lease doesn't mean they are enforceable.

@Greg Dickerson I really like your comment about being 'honest' and lettingthme know you are just getting started...that's such a good reminder...people who are TRULY successful often see a little bit of themselves in you and are willing to give you the time of day especially if you show grit, hunger and WILLINGNESS to learn.

Benton had previously obtained a Marini Hearing Order, but she had not complied with the terms of the Order and I reminded Judge Spencer that she had vacated that Order.

I have one tenant that mows her own, but I often have to remind her that the grass is looking pretty bad, and she doesn’t use a trimmer so I occasionally have to go do that part myself or spray Roundup.

Listing agent might want to remind seller one of the reason for agency is for liability protection.

If a tenant goes astray with noncompliance of the rental agreement, upon first noticing this, we prefer to telephone the tenant with a friendly reminder about the matter. 

I told tenant to fix this by hiring a gardener to do the work and reminded her of her responsibility, yet nothing was done, so received a 2nd letter from the city. 

Ive created relationship with this couple and i feel like i know exactly what they are looking for over the course of time i visited and talked with them, they reminded me of my parents and wanted to create a Win-Win situation for both parties... where they can enjoy their retirement now and stop fixing up/managing the property. 

I'm sure he's reminded of that every day.  

I remind my Farmers agent of that to keep her honest.
