It's scary taking the risk - but I have to keep reminding myself that WE aren't paying the mortgage, once we get a renter there.

Reminds me of "shark tank" and talking about growing a business with equity injections...

Maybe all you need is a gentle reminder to get it all straightened out to your satisfaction.

Reducing rent = bad Two year lease= bad Now remind me again how this is a good idea and of any advantage to you ? 

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.
