First Post... Lease Option - Good Idea or Stay Away?
Hey all - I'm a newbie about to close on my first rental property in a A-/B+ neighborhood. It'll require less than 5k to get rent-ready and should cash flow about $350/month. Rent will be around $1900 and trying to determine if I should offer a lease option/rent-to-own (if the potential tenant is interested). I wasn't originally thinking of buy-and-hold but have heard from a few sources this is a potential way to increase the ROI. Any insight would be appreciated!
