Many will be well educated on their housing options guided by their brands, teams and universities, and are well capitalized and qualified on a short term 3-6-12 month basis, and I actually had a client purchase a newer townhome in Tallahassee for lease to a football player at FSU..Keep in mind the top earning NIL athletes stretch across multiple men's and woman's sports. 

If not, well you know the old saying, "the best time to get a lead paint certificate for your units was last year; the second best time is now".I've been told that the RI DOH may not start hitting people with fines for failure to register on October 1 as the law allows them to, due to the insufficient # of inspectors in the state to meet the demand.However, I've also been told that the other part of the law, the one that makes it so you cannot file for an eviction in RI without a current lead paint certificate, is expected to take effect sharply on October 1st.For anyone who hasn't submitted their properties/units to the new registry, I have a 15-page guide (with screenshots) that walks you through it.

The well-executed renovations and strategic project management helped position the property for a quick sale at a substantial markup, demonstrating the power of teamwork and a solid investment plan.

This is a smart way for house hackers to maximize income from properties that might not cash flow as well with traditional long-term tenants.
