In this particular situation I am getting a roommate tenant as opposed to just a tenant renting an apartment.

But I am looking at ideas how to word it for passwords/codes, access after move out, and guests that this person brings and protection around the usage.

Ie. Wifi, security system codes, video doorbells, smart locks, cameras, speakers, self installed devices in their room etc.

I'm sure there are landlords that have some of these in their apartment rentals too

Hey all, I have a general lease and clearly it is outdated with no mention of wifi or connected devices, wondering how you throw in connected/ wifi devices into your new age leases? Anyone have a sample clause?

Thanks.

I am currently looking for a property to live in and rent the other part, often the properties have tenants with rents below market. Since this would be my first go, from those with experience, what are some best practices?

Can the current moratorium prevent them from moving if I as new owner want to move into a unit?

Is there a way to put a clause in the purchase agreement for proof of tenant payments up to current month?

Security deposits should be transferred to me at close, what if someone has no security deposit from their tenant? And is it possible to find out?

Would I throw in a statement in the property purchase agreement for the current owner to give notice, or allow me to speak to them before closing, or just deal with it after I buy the property? (My lease expires Mar 21)

Any other advice is appreciated too, thanks in advance :)

I have looked on bigger pockets, I am sure there is a section, or blog post etc about this, but I have not found it. I Googled and found TurboTenant?

For those with multiple rentals, what service do you use for screening tenants, and how much does it cost them (or you)?

@Jaysen Medhurst

Question, are there not additional closing costs to with an FHA?

And can you just get a conventional with 5% down but lower closing costs than?

I'm looking for a 2-4 unit too in the Philadelphia area, preferably the burbs, you seem to know about FHAs Jaysen :)
