Delivery time was to be at noon .The crew he got to install them showed up at 7 and was told to remove ALL the old windows , get a head start . 

I went ahead and accepted them, and in the lease they both signed, he is the primary, because her income and credit score would have disqualified her to rent alone.Two months after they moved in, he called me and said they were having relationship problems and she kicked him out the house.  

😢In the end I might have to go ahead and replace the whole roof,  but I’m brainstorming now

You can't jump ahead to the building permit until the ZP is issued. 

Its always good to plan ahead and review your scenario to make sure you are ready to execute your next deal when you come across one rather than just wing in it and find out you are stuck between a rock and a hard place. 

Hopefully they won't delist you since you took action and updated your listing right away.Is it possible to collect the fee up front, then document the vehicle information upon arrival? 

Long-term rentals have existed forever and are a proven investment vehicle.

Hey @Tyler Bilinovic, if you plan to purchase more properties go ahead and link up with an REI-savvy tax pro to form the relationship early so you're not scrambling as you're scaling.Even with just 2 rental properties an REI-savvy tax pro is worth the money.

If the market is slowing down, it might be better to hold and wait for a better time to sell.It's great that you're thinking ahead and considering all your options.

And it's good to know and anticipate it ahead of the time, so that you don't make mistakes that others do.
