The addendum would also either need to ensure the tenants still took responsibility for any excess power used either by paying the utility for that directly or by paying you if you bill for that.Bottom line it's attractive to have others pay for an asset that improves home value.

If so, I don't consider their rent to be market because of the excess vacancy.Think about what vacancy and turnover costs you and decide how much of a factor you consider that to be.

And your compensation is a commission  That's it.When you wholesale you're trying to get the property (under contract) for as cheap as you can and your profit can often be well in excess of 3% of the sales price. 

The best thing to do is try. 11 properties for comps seems excessive to me.

It grows primarily in shady places with adequate moisture.

Once your new business is successful real estate can be a great place to put your excess cash.

It is not guaranteed that you will be able to achieve a return in excess of 6.9% on a rental, (though if you find a 'no brainer' then it warrants some consideration). 

Agree sitting on cash isn't ideal (although I would encourage everyone to keep excess liquidity for for the unexpected).

I made a full price offer on a bank owned property, and the only thing I asked is for is a home inspection, and moisture/termite inspection at my expense.

And I don't know how many loads they do during weekdays when I am not home.I don't know how to prove if this is an excessive use of washer, but I wonder if it's acceptable to remove the washer or replace the washer to a coin-operated washer (uncommon in Philly) upon lease renewal?
