I use tenantbackgroundsearch.com, although many of the vendors provide automated reports that are nearly identical. 

My examples just happen to be two items  that kill many of these conversions after the zoning permit is issued so best to verify what obstacles if any exist early on.

As a landlord, I verified the work needed by pictures being sent, and arranged for a contractor to go in person who is licensed and insured to give an estimate for the work stating to management company this would likely have to come out of a security deposit.The management company was initially asked prior to me arranging this appointment with contractor, to have someone professional quote the damage, and they disregarded my wishes and without my knowledge, or notifying me, granted consent to the tenant to fix the door " in any way they see fit, and to attempt to fix it themselves to the degree of their liking." 

Verifying last 2 years of rental history very important!

Thanks for your response @John Underwood    The bank is saying that her deposit posted on that day but not verifying the end of day balance.  

You can, and should, read books, listen to podcasts and interview operators - and all of that knowledge will be fortified and verified only if you find others whose experience you can share and use.

Would we be able to put the home in the Holding LLC since our names are directly on it (albeit a Delaware LLC meant to hide our identities)?

Any sophisticated and honest real estate investor would know these cap rates are ridiculous and you could easily verify their absurdity with cap rates of comparable properties that have sold.

@Darrick Lowe, We just had a situation nearly identical to this-  Eastern PA.
