Also you seem to not have a team in place, BAD idea.

I'm struggling with the idea that it is somewhat normal in this market but it does seem like it would be a negative to potential tenants.

Just a good person too if you want to bounce any ideas off her. 

This will get you the name on the dog on record designating that specific animal as their ESA.Good idea -- AND ask for additional rent/deposit, unless there is some legislation forbidding it for a properly registered service animal.My humble opinion, all this "emotional support" stuff is simply BS so they can take their precious animals everywhere they go and not have pay extra.

The only time I'd say it's an okay idea is if either: The area you're investing in is expecting so much appreciation that you will easily profit off that (watch out for mortgage interest though...the appreciation needs to be higher than what you pay in that and expenses to make it profitable)You have some specific reason for wanting to do it- family ties, future home, major long-term hold, etc.Maybe I'm forgetting another one, but those two are all I have for now...

This site plan would give you an idea of the needed development cost, which is usually what sinks development deals

For seasonality, I take into account holidays and local events that might drive demand.I'd be happy to connect for more ideas! 

Right now, rent to about ~175 students per year.https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1187121-stude...

If the tenant can’t prove the dog qualifies as a service animal or ESA, then it could be a lease violation.It’s a good idea to request documentation in writing and confirm its legitimacy.

The wholesaler had no idea.
