I was going to stay a couple nights with my family there over fall break and the nightly rates seem really crazy, between $300 and $900 for a typical rental house.

@Nicholas Jose the tenant estoppel is usually during escrow and the deal could fall through or the closing date could change before you get to closing so I'd have it be cut entirely from the letter and then just get your info/ tenant estoppel during escrow with separate documentation.

The bottom line is that if you bought your properties at the judicial sale (usually in the fall), the non municipal liens are cleared by the sale.

Normal wear and tear refers to deterioration over time from ordinary use, but damage like a large oil stain in the driveway from a vehicle is preventable and would fall under tenant responsibility.

With you not being there you're just going to need to make sure all the things you were doing and managing don't fall by the side. 

This is a mistake a lot of new investors fall into. 

However I tend to think a Section 8 tenant is more comfortable living off the system and are more likely to identify as a victim which is kind of a red flag.I own about 20 section 8 units and I like them (super gravy for the tenants) but my tenants are all over 55. 

The three properties referenced above: a) one turns into a mid-term allowing me to get higher than normal rents that cover everything; b) one turns into a short term; c) the third I focus on getting the highest dollar with short fall of may $100 per month and planning to raise rents in the next few years to cover that eventually.Problems: I have been a long time airbnb user.

This includes medical malpractice and auto accidents, both of which are significantly higher than what you would see with a landlord slip-and-fall or mold injury claim.3.

The majority of STR properties in Oregon fall within the loan limits of  up to $2-3M depending on the property type.
