All,
I seem to remember reading somewhere that banks are now responsible for following up with landlords to make sure that "building improvement" loans for "necessary repairs" are used for such. My deadbeat LL used his loan to repair the roof and fix up a unit (a longtime tenant died) to build himself a decorative brickwork facade for his private parking area and put a functionless cast iron fence around our garbage collection area.
I know which bank he took the loan with.
How to proceed?
