You could setup something where the fees are deferred until you secure the construction loan and then pay them 1.5-2x their standard fee if they waited the 6-18 months to get paid.

This includes, water, hot water, heat, air conditioning, cable, security system, snow removal, lawn care.

I highly recommend 51west properties, they're guaranteed and secured.

@Ben Berg, welcome to BP and great work securing your house hack!

Background:We have secured a building on a small college campus in Cleveland that currently does not offer student housing to its students on campus.

It shall be delivered full at the end of your lease or the amount to fill will be deducted from your security deposit.Something like that.Oil is tough on tenants because it costs a lot at a time to fill.

Some lenders will only lend with that reserve funded, in addition to down payment, as the more you boost NOI, the more secure their loan becomes.

What are the best practices for quickly securing reliable tenants and ensuring positive cash flow, especially for someone new to this?

We always send a contractor through to test everything and if broken, give estimates to repair and we can determine then if it is tenant damage and what charges to the security deposit should be.

This involves finding undervalued properties, securing them under contract, and then selling the contract to another investor.10.
