The security deposit should never be used for anything during the lease.

I frequently remind myself what we see is only the tip of the iceberg.

Typically, the owner is the only one that can sign a lease as they are the owner of the property.

I noticed 2 of the GCs I frequently worked with don't show their licenses as well.

Now leased to market, under 4% vacancy/bad debt, and RUBS implementation.

They typically charge to find a new tenant, renew leases, and upcharge on maintenance.

There is no differential factor number, however, it will change if you are buying tenant occupied, if they are are going to be vacant at closing, if they are going to stay the full lease or you have to pay cash for keys.

Also it matters if there is also a lease up fee the PM will collect, look at your agreement. 

Meaning the at the end of the lease, the tenant has the option to buy (but not the obligation) whereas the seller has the obligation to sell if the the buyer chooses to buy (works just like selling stock options!)

I frequent Melfort, that's where I usually buy stuff..
