I think she actually had a really good idea.she believes that providing gift baskets for first time tenants that include general house warming gifts, cleaning supplies,maybe a recipe book  and even a small book or brochure of how to care of  a house would be a great start to a relationship/good tenant.the goal of this would be to obviously motivate your tenant to take care of your property, keep it clean, and to create a level of respect between both parties right off the bat. that means (rent on time, communication, a good experience from beginning to end.)im interested in hearing your thoughts about this and if any of you are or have already tried it?

@Maria Murphy yes correct, simply paying the debt in the owner's name to hacienda (tax office)/government first as part of the purchase at the notary and everything left to the seller.Valencia has worked quite well for us the last years and compared to Barcelona/Madrid the m2 prices are a lot lower.

Also if you correctly read the laws in most of the states in the US and the federal statutes, creating systems as the one you are promoting would land you in the hot seat.

Since you're moving in soon, having face-to-face conversations can establish a personal connection and show your commitment to fair and clear communication.

I believe I remember him telling me that the data is pulled from AirDNA This is correct, they pull data from Airdna

If objections are brought up during a listing presentation, this can easily be corrected/resolved. 

Integrity, knowledge, and communication.

Is this the correct first step?

If I'm understanding this correctly it mainly makes sense if you either plan on holding the property or doing a 1031 exchange in the future?
