Acquiring Tenants - Any Tips?

Elizabeth S.

I'll be closing on my first occupied property this week and wanted to check and see if anyone has any tips they could pass along. It's a duplex with one side rented.

At one point I thought I had seen a document to have filled out prior to closing and signed by the tenant and the previous landlord basically clarifying the lease, what they pay, how much deposit was put down and those types of details just to make sure there aren't any surprise or miscommunications later. I wasn't able to find this document again though.

Any help would be great!
