One or two year lease???
Ok, so I close on my first buy and hold property next week. I know typically length of leases are one year. However, I know three different people that have gone to two year leases. They say this is due to the fact of the cost it takes to get the house move in ready when someone moves out(usually and hopefully paint and carpet). So do you guys think the two year lease is a good idea or do you think it would scare would be renters away?
