if that is what you do for all other applicants then this case should be no different. 

Cant speak for Nashville, but nationally Redfin recently released a report on their own transactions (they can see both sides of it) that average commissions have risen.This is no surprise to me as I predicted this would happen far in advance of the settlement.

NO!

The off peak is late winter/early spring (March to May) and we've had no less than 30% occupancy with an average of around 45%. 

Short answer: No, you don't need to (or likely want to) transfer the deed to an LLC before selling. 

I have looked into the windows and currently have a contractor quoting it out, however it is extremely expensive and there are no promises that it will improve the noise.

I've seen too many that prey on newbies and set them loose on the world, begging for "no money down" deals. 

Additionally, young adults are living together with no intention of marriage.  

Not ready to pull this trigger, but are we legally obligated to find a tenant or can we just tell them the offer has expired and that we are no longer seaking a tenant. 

RealEstateIRA's, there was no fine print.
