I appreciate your response!

I outline all the requirements and expectations as to who is responsible for what.

Hi Ty, Thank you for your response and providing some guidance on my above question. 

Hey there, the tenant can be responsible for all utilities in a single-family home.

The seller’s response to your offer will tell you your chances of closimg the deal on terms making it a good investment, and consequently how much time you should spend on due diligence.  

These roles are crucial for navigating the investment process and ensuring your property is well-managed.

If the former, then they each get their own lease, if the latter, they all sign one stating as a group they are responsible for paying rent (ie one doesn't pay, the others have to come up with the money).

It's my responsibility to be aware of these delays and underwrite accordingly 

Remember, if you have a contract and can't ultimately assign to a third-party, you're still responsible for closing on the deal unless you have a way to terminate the contract prior to the closing date using a weasel clause. 

I don't really feel it's my responsibility to keep his dogs out of my yard and he should be the one putting up the fence.
