The AZ law about wholesaling requires real estate wholesale sellers and buyers to disclose in writing the fact that they are acting as a wholesale buyer or seller in any residential real property transaction.

Too much to write here.

.**** Ideally, you'd get something in writing from the tenant indicating they are surrendering possession and stating anything left the in the property is deemed to have no value. 

Most will tell you STRs are a lot of work and I won't disagree with that if you don't know what you are doing.I will say though, we have been able to put together some rock-solid systems and processes to streamline that to minimize the work and maximize the returns.My business partner and I are actually writing a chapter in a new book that is coming out this year about unique stays.

The issue is that I would like to manage this property myself and would like to be known as the property manager and not a landlord.Since the property is under my name, I was wondering if there was a way to have them write out their checks to a company name rather than my name for obvious reasons stated above.

Easy to write a state specific lease and make tweaks, and send for electronic signature.

Any other bidder has to write a check for that amount, PLUS the amount over that to reach their winning bid.

I am not writing this never happens, so be forewarned, but you asked for pitfalls.

Also, the roof is a barn-style roof, so it starts to slope at about 4ft high.Is there anything I should add or change to suit MTR (and STR in the gaps of no MTR guests)?

Assuming you're stuck on renting it as a "duplex", you write a lease for 3 bedrooms and the named bathroom (s) for each tenant.
