Ideally I find a multifamily I can live in, but at this point I'm just reading as much as possible about what my options are and what constitutes a good cash flow opportunity.Anyway, I see so many threads and articles on here about people buying properties for around $75-125,000 around the country, and I'm just concerned that the info I read in those posts will just be a distraction, because no such homes or multi-families exist in Boston! 

Take the example above and say that there are only two bedrooms in your house, you can say one bedroom is being rented which constitutes 50% of the house.

To do so would constitute misrepresentation and would imposeliability on both the broker and the seller.DisclosureAn agent is obligated to disclose to his principal all relevant and material information that the agent knowsand that pertains to the scope of the agency.

What does that constitute? 

If you're going to collect the last month's rent, and its legal in your state, I'd add a clause to your lease that failure to pay the rent as scheduled for the last month constitutes notice they will vacate at the end of the lease.

I believe that I read where advertising the unit for rent constitutes putting into service as long as you do rent it.

Is this the sort of issue that constitutes funds from the security deposit at the end the lease?
