After much reading on this topic, I am now inclined to having my parents constitute a common tenancy themselves, with 50-50 ownership, for reasons that I show below. 

Most individuals/partnerships won’t have the money for all cash purchase, not to mention I’m not sure how many would be inclined to use all cash as it decreases your returns.

I would be more inclined to be strict and by the book.Let me give you an example, we had a group of tenants who paid on time for a full years lease. 

It’s much safer to find markets where population is on the incline (even mildly) so that you can safely bet on appreciation at or above the rate of inflation.I see many newbies on BP investing in rust belt states without any concept of inflation adjusted returns.

I am always inclined to build singe-family new construction, but that is my niche.

After building a relationship of mutual trust and understanding, I would be inclined to use your realtor services if and when I decide to dispose of the property.10.   

I might be inclined to share a little secret here... if your STR is currently in a Covid Zone: consider trying this: - Convert all listings to a 1 month minimum, by the room- Add all appropriate features to suit this- Mark the price up to 2-3x the typical rent, including everything- Sit back knowing that at 50% occupancy your roughly breaking even- Watch as your life gets really, really simple... as you have to work less and less every day, allow your net to drop to about 50% for a while, knowing that you are reducing the risk of Covid spreading in your business, and knowing that you are creating a safe space for those people who were planning to travel, but just want to chill while humanity finds a cure for this thing. 

I think I'm inclined to agree.

One thing I am inclined to provide is good quality metal mesh water lines so they don't bring their crusty crappy dry rotted 15 year old water lines when they move in my unit and then wonder why they break and flood the unit.

Go ahead and try to give a clearer picture of what you are offering, this way the person that is looking for what you can offer will be more inclined to reach out to you .
