I have been only contacting those people who sign up or request info but would like to start some cold out reach. 

For the value add we're going to fix up the roads, add a nice sign and fence, replace mailboxes, add lights and fix some plumbing leaks.

Also, if you approve them, make sure she is on the lease, and signs any rules and regulations you have. 

If you have a potential tenant that "might not" be a good payer, just don't sign a lease. 

On long-term rentals the bank likes to see signed leases which clearly you can't have with STR. 

If someone has been given POA maybe they could sign it.

It's difficult to see how a tenant will be after screened and signing a lease.

My suggestion would be to select someone with the most forum posts or most reviews.

My GUESS is these homeowners have been tricked/screwed in to signing a long term power purchase agreement, often with no buy out provision.

I've been reading more about subject to and here's what I've learned:-Good for sellers who are off market-Have low to no equity-Have a mortgage with a low interest rate (less than 5%)-Be absentee or out of state (vacant property, or have a tenant)The buyer would then take over the mortgage payments, and have the seller sign the deed over to the buyer.
