I have owned 3 brokerages and while the test is not super difficult..

While I would gladly accept an AirBnb booking, my property is less a vacation rental, and more a utility for traveling professionals/displaced families. 

Its possible she sees some kind of weakness there for her to exploit and is testing the waters of what she can get. 

I know they make marijuana smoke detectors as well as surface residue detection tests.

We agreed on a purchase price of 105,000, got all agreements signed, but no mention of rent increase, or warehouse money in the agreements (shame on me, shame on them).The leases came due between me viewing the property 6/1 and accepted purchase agreement 6/26, I saw the updated leases when the lender was wanting them, and noticed the brothers lease stayed at 700 while the other was bumped to $800.

The only exception I would accept here is that if it's your first time....or maybe the property is in a rural area...then there would be some allowance to the lender.

So, many have to be pushed into allowing them and then have "memory problems" or "forget" to tell the other occupants.This is the NUMBER ONE REASON for no showings until accepted offer.

Our offer was already accepted and we are within the due diligence days, but we just got informed after the offer was accepted that the additions don't have the permits and the current owners say that they purchased the house like that with an FHA loan?

- Have you stress tested the deal to see how low vacancy could go to still pay your mortgage?

One piece of advice I would recommend if you want to go FHA is getting to understand the self sufficiency test for 3 and 4 unit buildings. https://www.newcastle.loans/mortgage-guide/fha-self-sufficie...
