It looks like you do a favor to the tenants that way, you can make sure the light fixture is properly stored and the fan is properly installed, and you get to keep the fan, which I agree with Keven is seen as an upgrade to many tenants.

Take ownership of your mistake and learn to do the proper due diligence recommended above😊

Make sure you understand how to analyze the deal properly and understand the upside and the  Market.

I should have asked about that and determined whether each of them contributing 1-2% of the deal was enough to properly incentivize them if that 10% equity was split among all GPs.

It was denied due to there not being proper working smoke detectors in the property. 

:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

But if the area is prone to winds, you could get some spray up on the house which will create a need for more maintenance.You need to make sure you have proper coverage for lake front property.

10% is probably a little steep, and like John said, a flat fee may be more reasonable.Setting up a proper STR is not cheap, but once you are set up properly, you deal with routine breakage.I recommend managing yourself and saving the 20% personally, getting a rockstar cleaning team and a reliable handy person, using something like Hospitable that can help automate messaging when listing, and reading the book from the bookstore here called Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth.

In this situation, it’s important to approach the tenant professionally and review the terms of the lease to make sure the rent increase was properly communicated and complies with local laws.
