There was no emergency shut off switch before but i asked the hvac contractor to install one and he did ( located inside the apt).

What market are you located in?

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

@Mike Lambert That is highly dependent on a multitude of factors like size/luxury class/location/housing type/owner restrictions/etc.

I did the right thing by asking for the security deposit and first month of rent before handing the keys.For the next two months, she has been a nightmare.

The property is located near two colleges, so I’m focusing on student tenants and planning for 12-month lease terms.Do you have any tips or advice for renting by the room?

What do you do to ensure that the tenant is responsible for security deposit disputes since that is the largest reason for owner lawsuitsHow familiar are you with the newly changed laws that can affect you the owner if they are not used correctly?.

I’m located right outside the Akron area and work primarily with out of state investors (I’m a contractor/handyman) ask me anything about the area I’d love to help!

Look for undervalued properties.Network: Connect with local real estate agents, contractors, and other investors for insights and deals.Analyze Properties: Use the 1% rule to evaluate potential properties (monthly rent should be at least 1% of the total investment).Secure Financing: Explore different financing options like conventional loans, hard money loans, or private lenders.As for timing, if you can handle the extra responsibility, starting now could give you a head start.

Hi Nick I'm also located in California and interested in OOS investing in the midwest.
