Good summary of what your market is looking for but as we all know, each market tends to have its "wish / want" items which differ from market to market.Flow is definitely a selling point but make adjustments come with a cost. 

There are two items that you need to completely solve this problem for your rehabs: properly built Design Boards and a Finish Schedule.

I think you will definitely want to talk to your lawyer because there may be items linked to this transaction you are not considering. 

If this is simply you not wanting to accept partial payments and the rent is current, stop accepting it - and send a Lease Violation/Notice of Quit for Non-Payment of Rent - and force the full rent to be paid per the lease or start eviction.  

Roads, water, sewer, gas, electric, etc..I'm also here for any discussion on any other items that might be of note, trying to learn as much as possible on this front.

Another struggle i have with STR is replacing small items continually which ties back to pricing.

Two tenants leased the 2BD/1BA, and the studio ran on short-term rentals.

An example was a line item for alimony (I am single and have never been married).

So using your words "Lockup" the property but make sure your offer includes due diligence items to protect yourself.

You also want every adult to be named on the lease and sign it.
