Furnished Finder does make it tricky since you need separate profiles for each room, but platforms like Apartments.com or Airbnb might work better if you're aiming for full-house rentals or structured by-the-room arrangements.If you decide to rent to multiple individuals:Tenant Screening: Screen each tenant thoroughly to ensure they’re reliable and responsible.Clear Communication: Introduce potential tenants to one another Detailed Agreements: Use separate leases for each tenant and specify shared vs. private spaces, utilities, and maintenance responsibilities.House Rules: Create clear, written house rules to prevent misunderstandings.Inventory Tracking: Document everything in the home (furniture, appliances, etc.) to avoid disputes about damage or missing items.Also, market your property with its flexibility in mind—like proximity to hospitals for traveling nurses or universities for graduate students.

Collection is on time, they address repairs promptly, leases get renewed and increased based on market research.

I don't use padsplit (weekly rentals); I rent on long-term leases in B Class neighborhoods.

I was at a live tax deed auction once and the last property up for bid was a dilapidated 70s era mobile home on a leased space in MH park. 

Some portfolio or private lenders may waive this rule, so it’s worth exploring.While waiting for the 6 months, finalize renovations, stabilize the property with tenants, and ensure all paperwork (leases, receipts) is organized.

Is this for all DCSR loans or can these items vary?

Unless those items are all satisfied (except for housing violations and some non-monetary liens which follow the property), the department of finance will not allow the deed to pass through to the next stop in the recording process.So even if you wanted to dump a property that was totally upside down with liens to someone who was willing to take it from you, you can't do it.

Most of the time, you can purchase a property with tenants already in place, but the leases often need to expire within a certain timeframe—usually around three months—so you can establish owner occupancy.

And then the second item is - if you do take out more money, where does that leave you from a cashflow standpoint.
