If she leaves September 15 and the new tenant doesn't start until October 1, then you can hold her responsible for rent, utilities, and other costs through September 30th.Don't wait for problems to happen before developing a plan.

We did Airbnb on the five acre property before it was a Jiu-Jitsu center and it did well enough to cover the mortgage and utilities on our property.

For my single-family properties, tenants are responsible for all utilities.

Utilize an owner occupant loan and put 3-5% down on a rental to get your first one.

We utilized the VA loan, so we paid all of the fees associated with that and then paid roughly $3500 for closing.

The $20k lots were near or in flood zones, steep slopes, rocky, woody and had limited or no utilities.

What did you do with the utilities—did the city allow you to split them?

i've been in analysis paralysis not wanting to squander this amazing cash out return I got on a property.I have been trying to figure out if i should look into loans and buying more property for less carry a mortgage and utilize that debt in the future, or just say screw it and buy a couple 100k-300k properties all cash and 1031 in 2-5 years.any input or guidance on helping me make my ADHD mind up would be great!

As far as the land itself goes utilities are most likely going to be your biggest due diligence item.

E.g. fire rated construction requirements on main homes, survey & soils reports, utility upgrades.
