I think there is a lot of confusion between the duty to the homeowner/seller and some interpreted duty to the bank/lender.

However as Sabrina has found sometimes the information can take a LOT of interpretation and further research.

As far as selective increases, I would be afraid that may be viewed as discriminatory in some way… if I am not mistaken rent cannot be raised in order to try to force anyone to move out, which we would not be doing…if they pay they are free to stay… but might it be interpreted that way?

I apologize to you and anyone who has read this post.If my interpretation is correct, the guideline that I have mentioned is directed toward people who are planning to vacate their primary residence in favor of another principal residence.

The university is still growing...but exactly which direction it's planning to expand is up to interpretation...you'd have to get on the ground level and start going to zoning and planning meetings...to truly gauge what is going to happen...but even then it's possible funding falls through and you're left with property that you don't want.

*From what I can interpret on this, is that you do not owe taxes when you assign the contract.

That is all up for interpretation.  

Source: City of Philadelphia Department of Licenses and InspectionsI would interpret this to mean that you would need to pay the $50 to renew the license if the property is available to rent (whether or not it actually is).On the other hand, if you no longer intend to rent it out at all, then you may not have to pay the $50 renewal fee for the rental license.

The language of the tax law leaves room for interpretation by taxpayers - and the IRS. 

There's a lot of fogginess around this issue, and I'm not sure I have it all correct, but I have based my policies on info on the National Service Animal Registry (which is actually a pro-tenant website - I figure they're going to be the most extreme interpretation of things).Some important points here: National Fair Housing laws that require acceptance of service animals don't apply to single family homes rented without a real estate broker, which would be all of mine.
