I guess I can ask for more rent from the host than from a regular tenant?

We also have other great lenders we work with regularly, some as long as about 20 years. 

Take notes and review those notes regularly.

New user, first time post.Trying to gather info for an HOA Board about possibly having the HOA buy 'bulk' cable TV, Internet (Wi-Fi) with VOIP for use by each owner in a 55 year old and over HOA with 62 dwelling, plus a clubhouse with at least two additional TV usage locations (main clubhouse room, plus exercise room).Cox/Xfinity is the current supplier for the entire property which only has coax cables installed on the property below ground.

Do now hire a "regular" realtor. 

I return to the site regularly for easy access to state statutes and new features that are added.

I am looking at a prospective out of state long distance deal that has been difficult to obtain lending on as there is both a regular home and mobile home on the same property and the mobile home causes the potential investment to not meet conventional guidelines and therefore not even DSCR loans are an option.

As the lessee, I believe you can expense the roof replacement and then wait to exercise your option. 

When the option is exercised there are no real estate agent fees.

When switching over insurance,do I provide the lender with a STR/Landlord policy or do I purchase regular home insurance to send to lender and STR/ Landlord policy for my protection.
