We feel this encourages/trains good payment behavior:)We have several MoveIn Specials owners can approve like, free TV, Washer or Dryer (used), etc.Our main goal with MoveIn Specials is to stand out from our competition. - Just lowering the rent really doesn't do that.

Thank you Brett, mainly for properly reading my inquiry and genuinely trying to help me.

DealMachine is a powerful tool for real estate investors, especially for finding off-market deals through driving for dollars.

This collaboration could be a powerful learning experience and a stepping stone to success.

A couple thoughts on your question:I tell our STR investors in Colorado that their main goal should be to set up the right way right out of the gate.

In addition, I am considering changing my furnaces/boilers to have plug-in cords instead of being hard wired so that if there is a power outage in winter that I could power that heating system with a portable power station.

Price is often not the main or the only concern for the seller, they have other needs.

Sounds like you are already on the path to being an out of state investor and with the right team that can be powerful.  

The main criteria is consistency with adopted plans.

Main thing I would think of if you are targeting families are things like pack and plays, cribs, gamerooms for kids, etc. as well.
