Hi guys, We're landlords here in Belgium, but are planning on investing in our first BRRRR in Detroit soon. 

You’ll want to get really familiar with local zoning laws, short-term rental rules, and landlord-tenant laws as they vary by town if you plan on going the STR route.Focus on Cash Flow Early On: You might be tempted to go for something that appreciates quickly, but in the early stages, it’s important to find properties that bring in cash flow.

Nothing in land lording is written in stone .

She approached me an indicated her landlord was selling the building and would I be interested.

I can't continue providing that service if the landlord takes over management.

Are the renters or the landlord expected to cover rent during the evacuation?

None of this directly relates to landlords reporting rent payments. 

Even though landlord-tenant laws are horrible for landlords, which translates into more risk and a higher cost of doing business, resulting in higher rents, which is where we come full circle..Glad to see a little common sense come back with the new prop36 smash&grab laws

If I were a business, I would have added significant penalties to the landlord for breaking the lease.

Tenants still need an agreement with the landlord.
