REITs are easy to get into and highly liquid - log in to your brokerage account and buy a share - but you have zero control whatsoever.so...  

Maybe sign your own lease (from Wisconsin Legal Blank, store in Milwaukee or order online) but keep it MTM.Also, a little brokerage 101: when you ask for something in an offer, always make sure it is specific, with a deadline and includes consequences.

You need to check with your local boards or that broker/agent if they allow it.

If they don't know this is an expectation of yours they have no way of fulfilling it.If you still want to look for another one after that, we have agents in by brokerage all over the country that are investor friendly I'm sure I could help out.

To find the right real estate investor group, search for meetup platforms, REIA (Real Estate Investor Association) groups, local brokerages, and LinkedIn events.

If you're working with an agent, some brokerages also provide this as part of their marketing package.
