@Nathan Frost typical for Detroit, that's why we offer our clients several security options, including removing & storing mechanicals when vacant and then reinstalling day tenant moves in.What makes you think the seller will install new mechanicals?

I will secure the loan for everything.

This lack of competition can allow for more favorable negotiations and greater chances of securing desirable properties.Since pre-foreclosures are not yet on the market, investors can often negotiate directly with homeowners, potentially resulting in more flexible terms.

If the former, give her options to make sure rent is paid on time and, assuming she starts to pay on time, when it comes time to renew the lease, do not renew it.

Sellers may struggle to mentally shift from "owner" to "tenant," which can create challenges with boundaries and property care.Security Deposit:If you’re doing a temporary leaseback, be sure to collect a substantial security deposit to cover potential damages and ensure they vacate on time.

Lol Have you done many lease options as a buyer over many year term? 

The agreement is contingent upon the buyer securing financing which I was not able to do and have provided a denial letter.The seller is requesting money for damages because the appraisal came in at the purchase price but needed a heat installed in the kitchen which the seller agreed to install (Not in writing).

In short, securing an STR permit isn’t easy unless you fulfill all the township’s requirements

Separate accounts per property incurs a lot of overhead, such as minimum balances or fees for missing the minimum.I use separate accounts for each tenant's security deposits.

I incorporated smart home technology, such as automated lighting, heating, and security systems, which is highly desirable in today’s market.
