Imagine the lease says you will pay all utilities or the tenants have provided all appliances they will be taking with them. 

All utilities will be billed to the tenants.Using the BP calculator to underwrite this deal I'm showing NOI $32,274, Monthly cash flow $698/month, and CoC ROI 30.99%file:///C:/Users/Provider%20QCK%20Richmon/Downloads/9284%20Peachtree%20St%20(1).pdfPlease pick this analysis apart and tell me what I'm not thinking about .........

So, if you didn't pay your municipal utility bill and the municipality slaps a lien on the property the buyers could come back and hold you responsible for that.

You could certainly ask them although I would note, they'd almost certainly never figure out you were gone especially if the mail, utilities, etc. were all in your name and you were in fact there half the year or so. 

Is it a way utilize some tax deductions? 

With this in mind, I have seen other property owners use different strategies to bill their tenants for utilities.

@Kaylin Gonzalez No, just taking the cash flow will not give you taxable rental income.You need to take Rental Income less Deductible Rental Expenses (e.g. depreciation, utilities, etc.) and this will give you Taxable Rental Income. 

However, the fact that it was an existing structure with utilities and plumbing running to the garage made our lives significantly easier.Existing 2nd Story Crash PadZONING AND PLANNINGWe’re located in a suburb of Boston where ADUs are allowed by-right… except if the structure is detached from the main building 🙄 which requires a “special permit”.

I've never worked with an investor friendly agent so I'm just looking for the most efficient way to utilize them if we decide to work together.

You can deduct expenses like mortgage interest, property taxes, utilities, and repairs proportional to the rental space.
