Is that common in your area? 

Denver is actually doing a decent job of advertising their Airbnb laws. 

My question: If we want to have a tenant in place on or around Oct 1, when should we begin advertising? 

Through agency debt at ~67%, pref equity from an institutional investor and common equity from our investor-partners.

I've heard from several people who thought they had an owner finance agreement signed at the kitchen table, assumed they were paying down equity only to have the house sold right out from under them.Ben,  How common is this that a seller is willing to give up their deed upfront in exchange for seller financing.  

**Due-on-Sale Clause**: The existing lender could call the loan due when the property transfers ownership, though this isn’t common if payments are made on time.2.

Finding a hard money lender willing to cover 100% of the rehab costs up front is less common, but it’s not impossible.

Then there is a central system that is outside of the doors on the ceiling if one of those in the common area goes off then it sets off the alarm for the whole building.

I can see the rates they're advertising being possible BUT I doubt that they'd had the same spread if they were signing leases in today's market. 

The industry found better ways to make pop cans aluminum versus metal, recycling became more common and 35 years later, you don't hear about this anymore.
