A price you agreed to, apparently before you had a clue what the
essential repairs were and what they would cost. Now you're naively
paying for those repairs to a property YOU DON'T OWN.

just deposited those checks too, today!)

Just wait till the Chinese OWNER of the property finds out HIS
tenants didn't pay HIM their rent this month.
