Hi All - I found a lead on a MFH (5+ units) that is a short sale.

Unfortunately, there are times when being accommodating and making exceptions can lead tenants to take advantage of the situation.

Kudos to you and Debra for making it happen—this is a great example of how collaboration and decisive action lead to success!

The city of Chicago has made a huge push to get rid of any lead service lines, so it's no surprise you have to mess with that.   

Find your cash buyers via propstream, batch leads etc.

However, that will likely lead to increased turnover and increased vacancy time in between tenants.

TLDR: Pre-approval seems like a good thing but it can lead to lost bookings or a time sink (has anyone spent less than 20-30 minutes on the phone with VRBO trying to fix something??).

A tax account ensures nothing is accidentally spent elsewhere, and a marketing account makes sure lead generation is always prioritized.From a credit perspective, connecting credit cards to these accounts on autopay helps you manage spending responsibly while playing the credit game.

This deal came through a direct seller lead, which we negotiated quickly and efficiently.

Even moving for work (not switching jobs) usually has a reasonable lead time.Yes, your other concerns are also valid.BTW, if I want to verify a bank statement, I ask them to bring it up on the app and show me.
