In Worcester MA we have the same thing. 

However, one deal taught us a harsh lesson about balancing kindness with caution—a deal that nearly ended our business before it truly began.It was the end of our first year, around Thanksgiving, when we received a lead in Massachusetts.

ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS get the VERIFICATION OF DEPOSITS from the institution/bank where the money is AVAILABLE before letting anyone know about your deal!

Hello, I am a landlord of a condo in Massachusetts and am considering selling while my tenants are still in a lease term with me.

I think both institutions offer unique opportunities to better than average cash flow with the right purchase and strategy. 

Would like to create something similar in Connecticut and Massachusetts.

I’m an investor/agent/electrician living in Boston Ma.

.- Im thinking of not charging security deposit because of all the strict MA laws and just using the last months rent as a sort of security deposit, thoughts?

I would also speak to your lender, financial institution and the Realtor/Broker professionals about this situation so, you can make sure you are on the right track, and everything works out in your best interest.

I think institutional money and large PEs maybe one of the biggest culprits that's driving the home prices and rents all across the States higher than ever before.
