It depends on their contractual management. They may need a notice to quit their services, which may include listing. better to follow up on documentation to verify. 

I use Craigslist often. Make a new account or try to post in separate forum styles etc. Sometimes, their website can be finicky. 

 happy to do so! that's why I sent it out. Why build a wall when I could make my table longer for others? Get after it!

Andrew, 

Thanks for sharing your slide and all the great links/ resources within it.  I noticed in the scenarios you presented that the number of map searches and listing page views were dramatically different.  I checked a two locations and they both have numbers that are very close to each other.  What can be inferred from this narrow gap? 

 Great question! I believe the backend of the system merely looks at viewing of their database by users on the tenant end vs. the area. The dramatic difference includes demand for an area. So Roseburg has less searches and also less views of properties, because supply/demand maybe lower. Whereas Des Moines is a more populated area and is saturated - the amounts are much higher. Des Moines has more supply and a high demand. 

Hey there. My uncle actually did this in Michigan. The discussion to be had was ventilation. They are easy to build and customizable. I'm assuming in your local Ohio area - check with who has potentially done this and ask them. It's ok to learn from others! 

What do you bring to the table @Lance Muller? is it deals? financing? stabilization? figure that out and the pieces that you don't have - partner with people who do. 

This is absolutely a question for your insurance provider. See what that will do to your insurance and general coverage. I personally own horses and it's an insurance nightmare most of the time - especially with renting out stalls to non-owners. 

hey there! good question. Personally, I analyze the residential units as guaranteed income and don't look at the commercial space at all. If the mixed use property works with just residential, then it's a homerun when the commercial is rented.  The type of tenant you get in commercial heavily varies on the economic status of the local economy, as well as the layout/who you're catering too. For commercial spaces - I prioritize a long term / cheaper tenant over a high rent with the potential for vacancy. 

Highly recommend Simplified Management/Rentals. They help with Boston Housing. It's good to know your full coverage and protection. 

I lived overseas and can confidently say there is no good "background check" system. That said, you can collate other useful info like co-signors and their references to their program in school etc. I would just make my lease incredibly defensible. There's no way to run a "global check". I would try to look at their social media accounts to get a good idea of whom they are or portray to be. At least, that is what I did when I lived in SE Asia and rented a few spots.
