I will not enjoy taking down all that furniture i just put together...

Our home was put on the market for $629k and before we made it to open house we had 2 private showings and multiple offers came in and we agreed on the best offer of $640k and a flexible closing (because we’d be rehabbing the new home).The rehab went over budget and longer than expected and while we did agree to a flexible closing, (we did extend 3 extra weeks) we could not afford to hold 2 mortgages much longer so decided we had move out.Moving day came and we moved out of our home and some furniture went into the finished rooms and the rest went into a POD.Where did we go?

However, I've seen loans pulled at the last minute when the bank found out one of the borrowers had lost their job, or the couple went out and bought a household of furniture on credit before closing, things like that.

Do other landlords include a furniture deposit aside from the standard rental deposit?

Are you providing furniture too or just the room?

If they refuse to give it, you can follow the abandonment law of your state.I'm willing to bet dollars to donuts that what they left behind was junk furniture and trash.

We went through and kept some stuff to sell (leather harley goods, brand new Motocross helmets/goggles, a great trunk I refinished for our primary). 

From my reading, it appeared they were collateralizing my chattels/non-realestate property, so my tools, furniture, etc.

Does anyone have any advice on the feasibility of not classifying the property as an investment property to depreciate or write off expenses such as furniture, dishes, insurance etc, & just collecting monthly rent on your property for a regularly classified home?

- More deals to be had in Winter - The economic shock to real estate post-covid, as little as it may be (5-10% even) is expected to work itself out by end of the year - Get your ducks in a row before then, narrow down on neighborhood, save down payment money, furniture money, any immediate repairs/customization money
