What paperwork do you show the IRS or bank or other members in the future to show who owns what, and when that ownership started? 

I know we can’t predict the future. 

I would be glad to share experiences and/or discuss future plans. 

Outside systems like plumbing, sewage, and the water heater should be in good condition, and make sure there are no signs of pests.Additionally, look into property taxes, insurance costs, and zoning laws that could affect future development.

However, this also means walking away from future appreciation gains and potential rent increases.As for a HELOC on an investment property, yes, it’s possible, but terms are typically less favorable than primary residence HELOCs.

I would request they pay rent the usual way, and then you can decide whether or not you want to utilize the app in the future. 

I’ve been in this situation and with a growing portfolio and expenses, it’s hard to put money aside for two mortgage payments.At Sid Was Here, my management company, we’ve always offered to let guests pay into the future for longer stays.

Have a feeling future tenants will.

I typically do most small jobs myself or find random handymen who do a decent/poor job.All leasing/property management is done by me today and I think it will remain that way in the future, even from afar.

Have them use a loan servicer so you don't get into future disputes on the balance, plus then the servicer can handle the escrows.
