Our tenant buyout expert, Attorney Sasha Struthers, joins us for an important legal strategy discussion on tenant buyout agreements (also known as “cash for keys”). Following a brief presentation, Sasha will answer all your questions on how to get out of tough tenant situations! If you are thinking of selling your property and need to sell with one or more vacant units to maximize your sales value, or you merely have a tenant or two causing your problems, or perhaps your tenants are way below market, a tenant buyout agreement can be less hassle and less costly than going through a painful divorce called “eviction.”

Hear from a leading “cash-for-keys” expert, Sasha Struthers, Esq. as she explains the key strategies and legal aspects of tenant buyout agreements. Tenant buyout agreements can save you a great deal of time, headache and sometimes even some money. THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE OF THIS IMPORTANT LEGAL STRATEGY FOR DEALING WITH TENANT ISSUES. YOU’LL ALSO GET ALL YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED AND, IT’S ALL FOR FREE! 


During this webinar, we will cover:
  • When are tenant buyout agreements appropriate, and how much will they cost?
  • The psychology of the tenant buyout…what’s on a tenant’s mind versus your way of thinking.
  • The tenant buyout process from start to completion – a “step-by-step” explanation.
  • Best practices for approaching a tenant about a cash buyout. What to say and when.
  • What are the terms contained in a tenant buyout agreement? What happens if the tenant does not move after the agreement is signed?
  • How to determine the correct amount to pay to recover a rental unit. Does the government require a minimum buyout amount?
  • And, of course, we’ll have much, much more…including Q&A to follow the presentation.

This will be a live, interactive, online learning session.  Live Q&A will take place throughout the online seminar.  Please join us for what will surely be an extremely informative and timely presentation.  Please log in to register on our website at www.aagla.org/events.  If you have any questions, please contact Events Manager, Diana Alcaraz, via email at diana@aagla.org.
