Personally I think this is where a lot of sale lease back programs fail the seller.

There's no clear-cut answer IMO, it's a personal decision.  

Sometimes you will have that next person/family lined up and ready to go, but sometimes it takes much longer and you need do renovations or at least some repairs.

If you close with a conventional loan, it will need to be in your personal name.

I personally use Hostfully and their support team is great!

.- cannot force exit- cannot force to open books- have to pay legal costs for Grocapitus if they ever take action- are indemnifying Grocapitus against false statements.

I personally am interested in creating a long-term rental portfolio but I'd be interested in hearing any strategy, ie. house flipping, short term rentals etc.

Personal loan for renovations How did you add value to the deal?

I have sold some properties years ago on lease options where the tenant buyers actually exercise their right and purchased the property. ( I was in the deed.)The reason I am concerned to tie another person’s property up  with the lease option is that people can change their mind, as in the seller.  

There are legal requirements for disposing personal property left behind by a tenant.
