Maybe I am being too soft with the current tenant but I decided that getting what may be a slightly sub-optimal rent for 6 months was preferrable to the certainty of having two properties vacant at the same time.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>traineeinvestortraineeinvestorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05179861120801348035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25714039.post-1150373151505836462006-06-15T20:05:00.000+08:002006-06-15T20:05:00.000+08:00I was renting out a house once.

He was waiting for a heart transplant and pre-wired the hospital $1,000,000. He gave me some advice:<BR/><BR/>"If you want to be nice be a priest. If you want to be a good landlord you're going to have to be firm."<BR/><BR/>That always stuck with me, but I hear ya. It isn't easy, espically when you have a goood tennant.<BR/><BR/>- Bryan<BR/>http://www.BryanCFleming.comBryan C. Fleminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07079833513199896226noreply@blogger.com
