How does it address situaitons where occupants either have a fake lease or got scammed by someone posing as the landlord?

One way this can happen is if there were two tenants on the lease - the check should be made out to both of them.

It is in leasable condition but has below market in-place leases.

It appears the base zoning must allow for the creation of 3 units in order to lease a total of 8 bedrooms.

Specialized policies, contractor recommendations, tenant screening, lease agreements, utilities, and exit strategies are also important.Good luck!

@Tanya Maslach Since it sounds like you're not really using a property manager - connect with whoever helped you purchase the property to see if they know of a leasing agent or showing agent that you could reach out to help hold the property open to tour at least once to twice a week for an 1-2 hour period on weekends. 

I'm fortunate that my listings leased via apartments.com and SabbaticalHomes.com

You want to see all of the leases, if there are any, and when they end.

Those apartment complexes usually have an in-office leasing staff and don't use a Realtor.When I'm trying to price an apartment, I'll go to MLS first and pull those comps.

Here I have contact info, lease info, AC filter, trash day etc plus all the income and expenses.Then I have a Master tab that has all properties, so I have the big picture of gross rents received.
