I prefer Rentredi for rent collection, lease signing, maintenance requests, etc.

I had a few tenants e-sign 6 documents with multiple pages in a couple minutes and realized they did not read any of it! 

One of them can move out, but that doesn't eliminate their responsibility to pay the rent according to the contract they signed.

.- You will have to come out of pocket for the arears, fees etc, just to get into "contract" some times $20k or more and all you have as protection is the word of someone who's proven to be unreliable and a signed piece of paper... 

Bandit signs, cold calls/texting along with direct mail is the method most people use.

My condition was that they rent the house for 1% of the costs and sign a 3 year lease.

Unfortunately I don't buy in Milwaukee (I stick to the chicagoland area), but if you deal with wholesalers put in a clause or have an addendum they have x business days to find a buyer and resell the contract if you do sign.

Me and my girlfriend are currently saving to purchase a home within the next year or so to start house hacking, my concern is how signing the lease option to purchase contract will affect our eligibility for first time home buyer programs? 

Do you have a disclosure or buyer agreement signed with this buyer?

How would I go about finding a sober living operator that could sign for a lease?
