This is one of those situations where you separate legal process, safety, and asset protection immediately.Short version: treat it as a health and safety emergency first, lease violation second.Here’s how I’ve seen this handled effectively:1.

I have had candid discussions with the PM where I tell they need to improve their screening process because I not have these issues in other states and they excuse this by saying that bad tenants are unavoidable in the AL market (which seems like BS to me). 

For your first flip, focus less on the lender name and more on terms, draw process, and how fast they can actually close.

Hello @Calvin Maranville, I totally hear you...working with “mom and pop” property managers can work to some degree, but having systems in place makes a huge difference and really smooths out the process.

You are going to have to follow the formal process if that isn't going to happen. 

This allows the lender to remain protected throughout the process. 

I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to start that process and/or any tips that can help me?

One thing to be aware of is some brokerages now charge clients a processing fee. 

Would you mind walk me through the process of finding real buyers too? 

If anyone has advice on what the closing process of a deal like this looks like, and whether agents are willing to work with you even if you’re not the one actually buying the property yourself, I’d appreciate it.
