They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

I see you're looking at buy and hold for long-term passive income - but there are few different ways to skin that cat.

It will be extremely unlikely that you find a HML to give you 100% funding on your first deal.They will all require you to have a down payment and some skin in the game.You will also need funds for rehab because they typically reimburse you afterwards.You'll either need to save up or get private money (friends, family, etc) for the down payment.Otherwise you can always explore creative financing options like seller financed deals, etc.

You know the typical signs to look for over grown grass, tons of newspapers sitting in the driveway, weeds growing over windows, just signs that scream my owners don't care about me, one house even had a few meteor sized holes in the roof.

If you're selling that $500k rental but identify 15 replacements worth a total of $3 mil, you gotta find that extra $2.35 mil somewhere to keep the 1031 valid.Most people stick to the 3-prop rule, some use the 200% rule, but you have to be verrry careful with that 95% exception because, unless you have tons of value to play with or have a bunch of extra cash you're willing to throw into the deal, you could be on the hook for a very big sum.

When you do your renewal, I think it would be worthwhile to review the important points you want to get across: no pets, no smoking, pay rent on time or consequences would be X, take good care of the house, you will respond in x amount of time for repair requests.

But the kind of tenant who will let things go all the way to eviction court, probably doesn't care about that. 

If that is indeed what it is saying, Why would I care how much their policy is for?
