Welcome to the group and congrats on the condo purchase. 

A clean, neutral-looking curb gives prospective homebuyers a chance to visualize their own additions/upgrades.

Plan is to purchase a couple homes over the next year.

First of all, my personal credit was a very good at 735 midscore. 100% financed tidied it up just a little bit more with  just cleaning up a couple of things on my credit.

Had an inherited tenant move out after living in a property i purchased a few years back.

By all means give them a note on how to use all of the appliances (eg clean out the lint trap on the drier after each load, do not use dish soap in a dishwasher, change the furnace filter regularly, etc).

I am in the middle of purchasing my first rental property in Arkansas and was wondering if changing the wording of "pet addendum" to "animal addendum" would allow for the "animal deposit" and monthly "animal rent" to be collected?  

I'm considering purchasing a condo or a small SFH in the Oceanside/Carlsbad area as an investment property and renting it out on a short term rental site like AirBNB. 

For example, to get up-to-date property tax data you would need to scrape every county's tax data website (thousands of different websites, data formats, issues, etc...) then aggregate and clean the data.

I just set up my vrbo account and still some finer details about planning the communication, cleaning service, maintenance persons, etc…
