If you are renovating the units, you could offer the long term tenants a nicer unit at a discount of what you intend to rent them for.

You're likely better off hiring a discount broker to list the properties on the MLS for greater marketing exposure to bring in a bigger buyer pool. 

Tenant wanted a discount on rent.I said sorry couldn’t do that.

I just charged a flat fee and they got a discount on title and escrow services I found this to be quick and painless ,, and whats more Safe for me.. except if they never bought it back I end up owning some home in GA I never wanted in the first place..

I see both sides of the fenceAs a consumer I am usually more than annoyed when I get offshored.As a business owner, the Phillipines do offer some quality people with experience at a discount. 

It costs them nothing to fix it and you have a year warranty so you’re not getting a mechanical discount. 

A bridge loan won't have any type of prepayment penalty and if you are buying properties at a discount you could quickly pull the equity.

Also, it looks like the tenant screening is from transunion(smartmove), what is the benefit of Story here (apart from the initial discount seen)?

Some more straight forward commercial finance will not have upfront fees as well, it really just depends.In residential finance, more often than not, the only upfront fee should be the third party cost of an appraisal.

Not often, but often enough to make a HUGE difference in my net worth, I have had offers accepted for 50% or less of market value and 30% (70%) discount to asking price.
