I was thinking if 3 of us shared one, it would cut down costs and provide each of us that additional support we may need to juggle all of our tasks. 

Hey BiggerPockets Crew,I'm Shauli, a real estate investor ready to explore new territories. 

In addition you need to do a 3rd party home inspection & get an appraisal.

You plan an active role so it should not be as pronounced as a hands off ADU addition.  

Additionally, Parma's proximity to Cleveland enhances its appeal, offering easy access to urban amenities and employment opportunities without the higher living costs associated with larger cities.

Tenants paying rent by Venmo every month, which creates additional work to keep track of it all. 

I want to put in place some incentives for new tenants and want to know if anyone on BiggerPockets has done something similar.Here are a few ideas I have had:First Month Free: Sign a 13-month lease and get your first month freePets: No pet fee for the first 6 months, year, etcRent Discounts: Offer a discounted rent for the first month or two fortenants who sign a pre-lease agreement before a certain date.Waived Fees: Waive application fees, administrative fees, or securitydeposit for tenants who pre-lease.Free Utilities: Offer to cover utilities such as water, electricity,or internet for a certain period for tenants who sign a pre-lease.Upgrade Packages: Provide upgrades or amenities such as free parking,access to a fitness center, or a smart home package for those whopre-lease.Gift Cards or Vouchers: Offer gift cards or vouchers to localbusinesses such as restaurants, cafes, or grocery stores as a signingbonus.Flexible Lease Terms: Offer flexible lease terms, such as shorterlease lengths or the option to renew at the same rate, to incentivizetenants to pre-lease.Refer-a-Friend Program: Encourage current tenants to refer friends orfamily by offering them a reward if their referral signs a pre-leaseagreement.Early Move-In: Allow tenants who pre-lease to move in a few days earlyat no additional cost.Guaranteed Parking: If parking is limited, offer guaranteed parkingspots for tenants who sign a pre-lease agreement.

Very rarely a rehab goes as planned , something unknown comes up and the contractor will call you and tell you the problem and the additional cost . 

Explore more programs and property types and since you know about ADU's look for homes with bigger lots for that specific potential.Feel free to reach out and Network always happy to help and talk REI!
