IE being a lender and my clients could not refi me out.. led to a lot of ugly confrontations  

There are soooooo many BP members that have noticed your inflated rated system, but are way too scared for some reason to confront you james@James Wise.  

When I confronted the tenant, their response was "It's just a small bird, not a cat or a dog".

Make it in their interest, using incentives.....Anything to get them moved and avoid the possible physical confrontation.

You will find that police are pretty nice people most of the time and when confronted with evidence and facts... they are usually pretty much just people...All said, doi whatever works for you.

I think I joined initially in 2013 and argued, had confrontations, and flat out told a bunch of people to go .... off somewhere and meant it.

I want to seek advice on a situation I am having in one of my properties in North Carolina.I inherited a tenant in a triplex that we acquired 4 years ago.At some point after we acquired the property, the tenant gets a dog.I advised the tenant that this is against the lease and they said they were just dog sitting.Several weeks ago, I confronted the tenant and they admitted it was their daughter's dog.

We aren’t hard arses, we prefer a softly softly approach that avoids confrontation and animosity, even though this particular tenant had brazenly breached the lease and potentially given us grounds to evict them.The tenant’s response?

I would suggest confronting the issue head on.

I'm going to confront him and ask him if he wants to give me my money back or he can vacate the property.
