Ended up finding a lender that would approve our LLC's application and only use my business partner's credit history in July 2024.

And I would probably look at the smaller houses where you can keep your unit costs down but still rent them at a higher price point relatively speaking. you are arguing one asset class. build a new hotel anywhere in America on any soil it's better than any apartment complex you can own. lower cost per sq ft than type 1 buildings and higher exit. we just ran into that and hotel is way better use after a rezoning application got declined for apartments. hotel is looking much better 

Waiting for a solid applicant with decent credit and rental history has helped me find good tenants that do the right thing.  

There are several types of fees on Airbnb specifically: -Airbnb service fee, cleaning fee, extra guest fee, pet fee, security deposit, VAT (if applicable), and local taxes. 

For example, if you're in a place where there's a bunch of old people and most stores are closed past 3 pm that's not the place you want to be. 3. 

If you require applicants to submit to a credit/criminal background check, then that should be applied to everyone.

If the locations turned negative, Dollar General never exercised the option to extend, and if the location remained good, they built a larger store across the street.  

There is also a hotel/liquor store/restaurant for sale that I would like to buy.

So before you get ready to attempt to rip your Landlord a new one, first go take it up with the local taxing authority, then go have it out with the insurance industry, then gripe to the neighborhood HOA (if applicable), then maybe settle your disputes with Home Depot/Lowes and any and all trade contractors.

Agree with @Gorden Lopes - you will not find the 1% rule for A/B properties in Huntsville/Madison right now unless you score a unicorn of a deal, or put up an enormous down payment to force cash flow.Even C properties right now are not easily 1% rule applicable.
