It also took me down the rabbit hole of the safety of escrow deposits which seems quite frightening.

They essentially look at the tenants credit in other countries. https://www.novacredit.com/

The primary benefit of a smaller  renovation is you'll have a larger safety net if the renovation gets out of hand, the property won't sell, or if it takes longer than expected to rent.

My lease states that the leassee is responsible for all guests, so mostly I use that, but essentially yes add to lease or have them officially sublet from the main tenant and send me a copy of the sublease. 

I would say option A has been successful for me, but my best ground rule double (I don't think I have a home run yet) was land hacking, essentially.

I remember the reports of the first cases coming out from Wuhan in December of 2019 ,and obviously since everyone knows there are only 4 comprehensive bio safety level four laboratories on the planet, Moscow, Paris, Fort Detrick-Maryland and of course Wuhan Institute of Virology, and given that there are over 100,000 small town with wet meat markets throughout China, one doesn't even have to ask the question "what are the odds?"

HI all could not manage without my PM he is my eyes on the ground living  out of state out of country infact  having a great one is essential  do am glad  

I'm only seeing one rule (safety). 

It was not comfortable in the LEAST but I was cash flowing and was essentially being paid to live in an appreciating asset.

That is a safety issue.
