Here some ideas to make it go smoothly:- Put together a financing file electronically that you can share (maybe you have done this already).

They do the payments electronically,  hold the docs, do amortization and annual interest reporting. 

I prefer a big deposit that can't be used as rent and rent electronically every month. 

The advice they give you will be specific to your state.Other suggestions could be to:* Offer cash for keys - Maybe offer to pay him a months rent for him to move out and see if he bites* Get everything documented electronically.

There are multiple ways to pay electronically, worst-case they can deposit at your bank.6) Once their payment clears, figure out MoveIn Date, create lease and send via Docsign or Hellosign, etc to sign electronically.7) Once lease signed, figure out rest of first month's rent and security deposit, have them pay like they did Holding Fee.8) Once rest of their payment clears, give them lockbox code so they can move in!

Room locks – You could do electronic keypads so you don’t have to rekey every time you have a move out (just change the code).

Most now pay electronically, but some smaller PMC's still send owners checks - which further delays when you'll get your funds.

I specifically don't allow wiring but require receipt of electronic payment and that is how the lease is worded. 

If they are mailing you a check, you should consider setting up electronic/automatic rent payment options.

It is pretty easy to do but probably not required unless you are powering more sensitive electronics from the generator.
