I'd say if you were that concerned with one more kid or adult in a unit, liability and W/T, you need to rent you 3/2s to older ladies who live by themselves and in good physical condition.I doubt I could really measure the w/t on a livingroom carpet with one more 28 pound kid, that is silly!

For things like a refrigerator I would have that in the lease as something provided without warranty as there are factors (i.e. used in the garage with extreme heat or cold, max temp setting usage, etc.) outside your control that can cause problems.I also rely on good trades (have some in DFW) that won't take me to the cleaners on repairs.

I know 1258 sq.ft. is a pretty small house, but I have a 900 sq.ft. rental and its had three adults and three kids living it in.

I know you can use a Realtor get com parables, but do not want to rely solely on a Realtor.

if you are working with an investor friendly title company, they can cut the checks to all parties involved so that your wholesaler/partner for the deal will not have to rely on you to cut the check for him and leaves a paper trail.

If it's ok to limit number of tenants, is it discriminatory to not rent to a 2 adult/1 child if I will accept a 1 adult/1 child tenant?

It's also made clear that any information received from any IRS employee is not to be taken as legal advice nor can it be relied upon to comply with IRS regulations.

Any Purchase Agreement or Assignment Agreement you made wouldn't legally bind you.Lastly, right or wrong, I think you'll find that most adults will not take an offer to buy a house from a fourteen year old seriously.

I retired a year ago and if I relied on the market I'd go nuts.

Your rehab estimate of $29,930 seems very specific...that tells me that you're relying on an estimate that someone gave you.
